<br />o <br /> <br />This article makes the water and beaches appear to be unsafe. This is simply not true. The <br />city prides itself on maintaing its beaches for its residents and visitors. More than one million <br />visitors vacation in Sunny Isles Beach each year, To headline a story that the beaches are <br />unsafe is inaccurate and misleading. The city hosts beach clean ups on a regular basis not <br />only to clean the beaches, but to inform and educate the public on the importance of keeping <br />its beaches clean for residents and wildlife. The article also implied we are hosting a beach <br />clean up in response to the survey which is untrue. The City is hosting a beach clean up on <br />Saturday, July 3 1 from 9 to II am at Samson Oceanfront Park, 17425 Collins A venue, in <br />partnership with Barefoot Wines. This event was previously scheduled. <br />Attached is the e-mail sent from our Public Information Specialist to the reporter providing <br />her the contact at the Miami-Dade Health Department. <br /> <br />The City requests that future reporting on this subject be accurate. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Rick Conner <br />City Manager <br /> <br />o <br /> <br />CC: Myriam Marquez, Editorial Page Editor <br />mmarquez@miamiherald.com <br /> <br />o <br />
