The City of Miami has launched an online dashboard to track 56 commission directives and 140 individual tasks. The project aims to improve transparency by allowing residents to monitor the implementation status of city mandates.
Why it matters
City officials created the tool to address resident frustration over missed deadlines and a lack of consistent follow-up on government commitments. It serves as an accountability mechanism for monitoring the execution of legislative directives.
The dashboard currently tracks 56 total directives with a 42.9% completion rate. While 24 directives are marked as completed, the system notably excludes right-of-way deeds.

Residents can now monitor the progress of specific city projects and ordinances online without needing to file individual information requests. This centralized visibility helps the public hold local departments accountable for the completion of tasks and public directives.
The takeaway
The city plans to incorporate additional projects into the accountability agenda as the system matures. Residents should continue to check the dashboard for real-time updates as department directors finalize their internal reporting processes.
