is fashioned.

supplemental services which will include sanitation, park and
landscape maintenance, general management of the district including
representing the property owners in communications with the City on
all supplemental services to be provided including the services to
be provided by the Miami Beach Police Department. MBDC has worked
with the Ocean Drive Association throughout the planning and
redevelopment of Ocean Drive. MBDC has assisted in the development
of policy standards for the area and has worked with the City and
the Ocean Drive Association to develop this management program.
