Royal Road Landscape Beautification Project
The Royal Road Landscape Beautification Project will benefit City of Miami residents. The mission of
the City of Miami is to elevate the quality of life of its residents by improving public safety, housing,
mobility, diverse shared spaces that foster community, and efficient and transparent government.
Miami is the largest city among Miami -Dade County's 34 municipalities. It is a dense 36 square mile
urban area with considerable economic, social, and ethnic diversity. Miami has a diverse population
that is 72.5% Hispanic, 16.0% Black, and 11.5% White. The foreign -born rate is 58.1 % and 77.4% of
residents speak a language other than English at home. Miami's median income is $44,268 versus
Miami Dade County's $53,975. The City is one of great contrasts and is often referred to as the "Tale of
Two Cities". Though it serves as one of the nation's leading centers for trade, banking, and finance, it is
considered among the poorest cities of its size in the country. Per the latest Census, 21.5% of Miami
residents live in poverty and 66% are low -to -moderate income. The Royal Road Landscape
Beautification Project will take place in a primarily residential area. Founded in 1873, Coconut Grove is
one of the oldest settlements in South Florida, and Miami's oldest neighborhood.
This project will advance the community's tree strategy through beautification effort, urban tree canopy
restoration as well as stormwater mitigation.
Will the project fulfill an element of an Yes
established community plan?
(Yes/No)
Please name the established
community plan.
Is this proposal the continuation of a
previous GREEN Miami -Dade County
(formerly known as Street Tree)
Matching Grant -funded project? If
yes, please provide the funding
year(s) below.

Project enhancements are key project components that help further specific goals and initiatives
of Neat Streets Miami -Dade County. Please see below for a detailed description of each potential
enhancement for inclusion. Please select all that apply.
Growing Green Bus Stops
Neat Streets Miami -Dade County's Growing Green Bus Stop initiative encourages the installation of
shade trees at unshaded bus or transit stops throughout Miami -Dade County in order to mitigate the
urban heat island effect and enhance the transit experience.

Green Bus Stop?
Growing Green Playgrounds
Neat Streets Miami -Dade County's Growing Green Playgrounds initiative addresses the wellbeing of
children and youth in Miami -Dade County by ensuring their safety through the planting of shade trees at
playgrounds (with or without canopy structures) to help decrease dangerously high surface
temperatures.
Will your project include a Growing No
Green Playground?
Gateways/Corridors/Connections to Schools and/or Parks
• Gateways, both vehicular and pedestrian, identify entrance points into the County and key
destinations within the County. They are intended to enhance travelers' experience as they enter
Miami -Dade County from the surrounding areas by offering scenic views and appealing
architectural elements. Gateways into retail areas, public greenways, and park systems may also
take advantage of scenic views and incorporate local artwork and vegetation to provide texture
and interest. Successful Gateways use landscape, architecture, other materials, and views to
cultivate a sense of identify and an atmosphere of welcome.
• Corridors are the major physical routes that channel vehicular, pedestrian and boat traffic into and
within Miami -Dade County, lining cities and neighborhoods to each other and to the surrounding
region. The views and general experience of those traversing the County's Corridors define, to a
great extent, the overall image of the County, consequently effecting residents' quality of life, the
tourist experience, the economic development climate and other important factors.
• Creating safe and equitable access to parks and schools through infrastructure improvements,
such as the installation of trees, encourages walking and bicycling.
Will your project include shading a None of the Above
Gateway, Corridor, and/or Connection
to School and/or Park?
School/Park/Library/Public Housing/Other Planting Sites
The 2023 GREEN Miami -Dade County Matching Grant cycle encourages planting locations on public
land, including streets, schools, parks, libraries, public housing sites, and other eligible locations.
Planting trees in these locations aims to increase canopy and bring multiple benefits and
enhancements to our community.
Will your project include planting at a Yes
school, park, library, public housing
site, or other eligible public property?
Provide the name and address of the public land location(s). What is the number of trees that
will be planted (specify the species for each).

Project Outreach and Maintenance Plans
Community Engagement Plan
In order to communicate to residents and nearby landowners about our efforts and the benefits of the
tree planting project, the City of Miami will utilize door hangers for residential properties near the
project site area. Additionally, City of Miami Commissioner Russel, along with City Manager Noriega
and their offices have engaged with the surrounding community about the project's significance. This
project is part of the City of Miami Urban Forestry Planting initiative.
In addition to the required press release and door hangers, the City of Miami will utilize social media as
an outreach method. The City will highlight the project throughout its various stages (pre -project,
project -start and post -project) through the City's official Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. Ongoing
public connection will be through the City's efforts to keep the community updated on the project via
our social media plan.
Maintenance Plan
Under the City of Miami Urban Forestry Plan, all trees and plant materials are guaranteed for a period of
one (1) year after the date of inspection for acceptance. All plant materials shall be alive and in
satisfactory growth at the end of the guarantee period.
During the guarantee period, there shall be monthly inspections
between the Contractor and the City of Miami to ascertain the
viability of the plant material. Any tree or plant that is missing, dead or fails to become
established due to Contractor's negligence shall be replaced at no cost to the
City within ten (10) days after the monthly inspection.
The contractor shall begin watering and maintenance immediately after each plant is planted and shall
continue throughout the course of operations on the site. Tree maintenance shall include watering,
pruning, spaying, dusting, weeding, cultivating, mulching, tightening and repairing of braces and guys,
replacement of sick or dead plants, resetting plants to proper grades or upright position and restoration
of the planting saucer, and all other care needed for the planting saucer, and all other care needed for
proper growth of the plants.
Watering: All trees shall be watered by hand hosing as follows:
Once a day for the first three weeks after planting, three times per week for
the following two weeks, and twice a week for three weeks thereafter until
inspection for acceptance.
Spraying and Dusting: During the maintenance period and up the issuance of
certificate of final acceptance, the Contractor shall do all seasonal spraying
and/or dusting of plant material. The materials and methods shall be in
accordance with highest standard nursery practices and in accordance with
all regulatory agencies having jurisdiction.
Protection: Planting areas and plants shall be protected against trespassing
and damage. If any plants become damaged or injured, they shall be treated
or replaced as directed. No work shall be done within or over planting areas
or adjacent to plants without proper safeguards and protection.
Damage resulting from erosion, gullies, washouts or other causes shall be
repaired by filling with topsoil, tamping and fertilizing by the Contractor at his
expense if such damage occurs prior to materials acceptance by the City Arborist
and/or Project Manager.
