Officials with the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office and Hialeah and Hialeah Gardens are cracking down on illegal dumping.<\/p>\n
“I will not tolerate it and I am taking action,” Hialeah Mayor Jacqueline Garc\u00eda-Roves said at a news conference Thursday. “As mayor, I will not be tolerating these illegal dumps. I want to keep Hialeah beautiful.”<\/p>\n
Miami-Dade Sheriff Rosie Cordero-Stutz said since moving the Environmental Crimes Unit to the sheriff’s office’s Organized Crimes Bureau, they have been able to remove tens of thousands of cubic feet of debris from the county and make dozens of arrests.<\/p>\n
“In 2025 alone, the Environmental Crimes Unit has made 78 felony arrests, 151 misdemeanor arrests, issued 1,482 civil citations and levied more than $1 million in fines,” Cordero-Stutz said.<\/p>\n
There will be uniformed officers and undercover officers working on the trash problem.<\/p>\n
