Did you miss these 3 Miramar stories? Catch up on art, public safety & more
Three recent stories about life in Miramar covered several topics — a Women’s History Month art exhibit, flickering streetlights that worry drivers, and a housing bill tied to redeveloping brownfield sites.
Here’s a rundown to catch up:
Miramar Cultural Center exhibit features all women artists. Here are the details
The Miramar Cultural Center is marking Women’s History Month with “Balancing the Scales,” an exhibit featuring only women artists, that is open now and runs through April 6. The month also includes a free March 31 meet-and-greet hosted by Vice Mayor Yvette Colbourne with speakers from music, NASA and dance (RSVP required).
‘Twinkling lights’ on Miramar Parkway spark safety concerns from motorists
Drivers have reported median streetlights on Miramar Parkway that seem to flicker on and off as cars pass, creating dark stretches and raising safety concerns. City staff said the lights are maintained by Florida Power & Light, and they’re working with FPL on fixes that may include moving wiring underground.
New bill could help ease Broward’s housing crisis. How Miramar might lead the way
A proposed state measure — the Infill Redevelopment Act — would make it easier to build housing on certain environmentally impacted brownfield sites in Broward, potentially increasing supply. The story notes Miramar already has examples of brownfield redevelopment and outlines both the promise (more housing) and the risk (possible gentrification) if the bill becomes law.
