Since 1949, the National Civic League has recognized and celebrated the best in American civic innovation with the prestigious All-America City Award. The 2021 awards event, held virtually, recognized communities that overcame the overwhelming challenges of the past year to unite during difficult times and build equity and resilience.

On June 9, 2021, The City of Miramar, along with nine other cities, was named a national winner of the All-American City Awards, for the strength of their civic capital—the formal and informal relationships, networks and capacities they use to make decisions and solve problems—and examples of community-driven projects that have adapted and transformed the community to be more equitable and resilient.

For two decades, Miramar has experienced astronomical growth, resulting in both benefits and growing pains. Through resident collaboration, Miramar has proven itself to be resilient in its response to these challenges by cultivating a resilient and equitable economy, increasing access to arts and culture and revitalizing a historic part of its community.

You can learn more about all of the cities and their projects at the National Civic League website. Videos of all presentations will be available on the website.

The All-America City Award is made possible through the support of Southwest Airlines, the official airline sponsor, The Campaign for Grade-Level Reading, CGI Communications, ICMA-RC, U.S. Census Bureau, Google and Comcast.
