Winners of Annual Mayor's Beautification
Awards to be Honored
Redwood City, CA - September 19, 2003
- From landscaping to remodeling, courtyard
design to historic renovation, and architectural design to
neighborhood improvement, the Mayor's Beautification Awards
recognizes the best projects from throughout the community
of Redwood City. This year's winners will be honored on Monday,
September 22nd by the City Council, with a reception beginning
at 6:15 pm at City Hall, 1017 Middlefield Road. Then, beginning
at 7:00 pm at the Council meeting, each of the winners and
honorable mentions will receive a plaque or certificate, and
the congratulations and thanks of the Mayor and the Council,
in honor of their civic pride.
The Mayor's Beautification Awards program is sponsored by
the City's Pride and Beautification committee, and is designed
to recognize the efforts of residents, non-profit agencies,
and businesses to maintain or improve Redwood City neighborhoods.
The program encourages attractive structural and landscaping
improvements in our community. Single- or multi-family residences,
apartment complexes, home owners associations, and non-profit
or commercial properties are eligible. A panel of volunteer
judges screened the entries, and the final selection process
included a site visit to all entries.
As a community, the way in which we use, improve, and maintain
our homes, landscaping, buildings, and gardens expresses an
image of Redwood City. The Mayor's Beautification Awards help
to promote and enhance this image both within Redwood City,
and beyond our borders. The awards show our neighbors and
visitors that Redwood City recognizes the importance and value
of keeping our City beautiful.
Below is the list of 2003's winners and honorable mentions
in the Mayor's Beautification Awards. Visit Redwood City's
