Coral Gables was founded on innovation, being one of the very first planned communities in the United States. Today, we’re known nationwide as a Smart City, leveraging information and communication technologies to benefit our residents, employees, businesses and visitors, as well as make our city more resilient and sustainable.

Coral Gables recently won first place nationwide in the 2018 Digital Cities award among cities with less than 75,000 residents. This is a recognition of a city’s performance and innovation in using technology to align with city goals; promote citizen inclusion in important government processes; share government data with the public; proactively address citizen expectations; boost cybersecurity and increase efficiency.

The City provides excellent municipal services, including an accredited Police Department, as well as a Class 1 Fire Department and a Class 1 Building Division. In addition, Coral Gables has been named a Tree City USA for the last 31 consecutive years by the National Arbor Foundation, and selected as a Playful City USA for eight years in a row by the non-profit organization KaBOOM!

Excellent municipal services, high quality of life, convenient access, responsible growth and a diversified economy make Coral Gables a highly desirable place to live, work and play.

Technology plays an important role in many of our City’s services and operations by fostering communication and collaboration among employees, residents and business; expediting tasks; increasing productivity; reducing our carbon footprint; assessing and managing risks; improving safety; making government activities and finances more transparent; and making City services better.

Our City promotes the development of a smart city ecosystem that fosters innovation and economic growth by bringing together through technology People, Businesses, Organizations, Things, and Systems. By leveraging strategic planning and innovation, the City’s digital transformation and smart initiatives benefit the citizens with continuous improvement of customer service and quality of life.

Our smart city roadmap is defined by the components of transparency, value creation, open data and analytics, actionable information, efficiencies, citizen engagement, mobility, accessibility, crowdsourcing, inclusion and collaboration.

ELEVATOR PITCH

Coral Gables was founded on innovation, being one of the very first planned communities in the United States. Today, we’re known nationwide as a Smart City, leveraging information and communication technologies to benefit our residents, employees, businesses and visitors, as well as make our city more resilient and sustainable.

OUR STORY

Technology plays an important role in many of our City’s services and operations by fostering communication and collaboration among employees, residents and business; expediting tasks; increasing productivity; reducing our carbon footprint; assessing and managing risks; improving safety; making government activities and finances more transparent; and making City services better.

Smart devices, systems and sensors already in place around Coral Gables form an interconnected network that gathers and analyzes data we can act on in real time. Much of this data is freely open to the public via dashboards, an application store, citizen engagement tools and our community intelligence center on Coral Gables’ Smart City Hub on www.coralgables.com.

Coral Gables’ award-winning IT department works closely with our volunteer Innovation Council of leading local tech experts and with multiple partners in professional organizations and academia to ensure our City remains on the cutting edge of technology. Thanks to the Coral Gables Smart City Solution Competition launched this year in collaboration with the University of Miami, the public has the opportunity to bring innovative apps and other technology solutions to our attention.

Improving Sustainability Over the last 5 years the City of Coral Gables has become a leader in sustainability and resiliency in Florida and across the nation. The City’s journey in sustainability started with the development of the City’s Sustainability Management Plan in 2013. In this plan, the City identified 23 district projects with the goal of reducing energy and water consumption, fuel usage, and overall greenhouse gas emissions by 20% by 2025. Environmental sensors

around Coral Gables measure air quality and noise pollution, while sensors in our waterways monitor salinity, PH-levels, presence of chemicals, depth of water and overall water quality. This data allows the City and outside experts to more easily detect and respond to critical issues such as red tide, extraordinary fluctuations and storms.

Bolstering Resilience Coral Gables has implemented powerful data centers to expand our capacity to support vital activities, such as provisioning services before, during and after a hurricane. To keep services functioning when natural disasters cripple the conventional power grid, our City is pursing matching grants to install solar micro-grids.

Increasing transparency Through our Smart Hub, anyone can view Coral Gables’ legislative, financial and public records. Citizens can easily assess City revenues, such as property taxes; expenditures, such as capital improvement programs; budgets and demographics; review public records and the legislative calendar; watch a legislative session live; and even see which lobbyists are registered with the City.

Improving services Smart technologies enable all types of business with Coral Gables, including payment, passport applications, business licenses, and permits, to be transacted online. Downloadable apps let Coral Gables residents check on traffic, order free rides on sustainable Freebee vehicles, and find and pay for parking by smart phone.

Streamlining operations Coral Gables has been implementing several Enterprise Systems that enable our City to better manage citizen services, city assets, facilities, permitting, finance operations, procurement, human resources and payroll by streamlining our procedures and reducing data entry. Employees will get the data they need, whenever they need it, to better decisions and improve our City’s day-to-day operations.

Awards and Recognitions Electric Vehicles and Alternative Transportation Coral Gables is proud to have won several awards and recognitions for the Smart City technologies we’re developing and implementing.

For our ability to leverage data and technology to improve our city services, Coral Gables recently won first place in the 2018 Digital Cities Survey among cities with less than 75,000 residents. This is a recognition of a city’s performance and innovation in using technology to align with city goals; promote citizen inclusion in important government processes; share government data with the public; proactively address citizen expectations; boost cybersecurity and increase efficiency.

The National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) included and highlighted Coral Gables’ smart city initiatives in its Global City Teams Challenge (GCTC), a collaborative platform enabling local governments, nonprofit organizations, academic institutions,

The City currently has the largest municipal electric vehicle fleet (53 electric vehicles) in the State of Florida. Currently 10% of the City’s total fleet is electric which puts the City near the top of the list of electric fleets in the nation. The City has also installed 16 public/private charging stations throughout the City and is just getting started. The City has a goal of 78 electric vehicles and 28 charging stations by 2021.

Alternative transportation is also a top priority in the City. Currently, the City has over 10 miles of bike lanes with plans to increase to over 35 miles. The City also provides free bike racks to businesses. The City offers a free trolley service in downtown that has over 1.2 million riders per year. The City has also implemented pilot program for electric scooters and implemented a Freebie service that had over 60,000 riders in its first year. The City is working hard at connecting the first and last mile of transit.

Green Building The City is also in the process of building a new state-of-the-art public safety building that is being built to LEED Silver Green Construction practices. The City requires all future City public buildings/private buildings over 20,000 square feet be built to LEED Silver or equivalent.

Green Space The City has over 295 acres of parks and is continuing to purchase additional green space to be converted into community parks in different areas of the City. Coral Gables has an extensive Tree Canopy of over 38,000 trees in the public right-of-way and has been Tree City USA for the past 34 years.

In celebration of World Standards Day, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standards Association held a contest in 2017 exploring how standards are helping to create the smart city of today and tomorrow. Coral Gables’ winning submission centered around our city’s robust network and system infrastructure based on engineering standards and best practices that enables residents and first responders to stay connected even when Mother Nature strikes hardest. Coral Gables is working hard to harness technology in the service of our City, and we welcome your input. Please contact us at www.coralgables.com/contact-us to share your ideas.
