City Beautification Award Policy <br /> <br /> <br />What is a City Beautification Award? <br />The City Beautification Award recognizes business owners whose efforts to clean, repair, <br />improve and enhance the overall aesthetics of their property thereby maintaining the beauty <br />of their neighborhood and surroundings. It is presented to encourage community <br />improvements, enhance our city’s visual image and economic vitality. <br /> <br />From May through October, one winner will be chosen each month. Business owners would <br />receive public recognition and an award for making the city of Elk River beautiful! <br /> <br />Businesses can be nominated for this award by others within the community or they may <br />nominate themselves (self-nomination is encouraged!). Winning properties may be shown in <br />promotional materials with owner’s consent. <br /> <br />What does the Beautification Committee look for? <br />The City of Elk River Beautification Committee seeks to recognize commercial/industrial <br />site improvements, commercial/industrial upgrades, landscapes, renovations, restorations, <br />and new structures that are architecturally noteworthy. A major criterion is how the project <br />visually enhances the surrounding neighborhood and community. How the business <br />incorporates design, maintenance, color, organization and creativity within the existing <br />community. Improvements to structures, outdoor spaces and the landscaping are important <br />elements for consideration. <br /> <br />Applications will be evaluated based on the overall visual appearance of the completed <br />project. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />2 <br />
