John C. Gifford Arboretum
Coral Gables resident Kathryn Gaubatz has been an active force within the community, and is currently working to preserve and protect the John C. Gifford Arboretum from future development. In 2005, the Coral Gables City Commission voted to approve the construction of a road within the Coral Gables campus. The reasoning for this vote was to ease traffic off of San Amaro Drive, US-1, and Granada Boulevard, the three main streets which encircle the campus and therefore handle the vast majority of vehicular traffic coming and leaving from the University of Miami.
