The City is Seeking Your Feedback on the City of Miami Draft Heat Season Plan!

In response to extreme heat Miami experienced last summer, the City has developed a Draft Heat Season Plan that outlines actions related to shading, cooling, and initial design that can address ambient heat, especially during Heat Season (May 1 – October 31).

Please review and let us know your feedback on the draft plan. The public feedback period is open from April 15 – July 15, 2024.


What’s Included in the Draft Plan?

This Heat Season Plan is organized into three cooling solutions and a Heat Response Protocol detailing actions departments will take during Heat Season and Heat Events.

The three Cooling Solutions for the City of Miami Heat Season Plan are:

  1. SHADE: Includes actions to help people stay cool in shaded environments.
  2. WATER: Includes actions to help people stay cool and hydrated by increasing access to water resources.
  3. DESIGN: Includes actions to help people stay cool in their homes and at work.

Heat Response Protocol: Includes short-term actions to immediately address the acute symptoms of extreme heat. Includes a timeline and communications strategy.
