MIAMI (CBSMiami) – The state of Miami Beach is strong and getting stronger, according to the city's mayor.
Mayor Dan Gelber gave his state of the city address on Monday.
Gelber announced plans for the city to ease traffic congestion, improve school safety and create a safer city.

Gelber told CBS4 he hopes that each of these improvements will give residents and tourists a sense of place.
