As we transition into 2007, this report serves as a reflec- tion on another successful year here in the Southernmost City. Though there were hurdles and obstacles to overcome last year, I can confidently say that this city has risen to the challenge yet again and come out stronger and better able to serve its resi- dents and visitors as a result. Much of this past year was spent recovering from 2005’s devas- tating hurricane season, most notably Hurricane Wilma, which left our island underwater and caused millions of dollars in dam- ages. Though we are still feeling the financial effects of that storm, the city is bouncing back to its pre-Wilma strength, boost- ed by quick recovery efforts on the part of your city staff. Each department was crippled by the storm, but by working together, we have replaced countless flooded vehicles, cleared and improved drainage systems in several neighborhoods and repaired damaged buildings and structures throughout the city.
