Winners of Annual Mayor’s Beautification Awards to be Honored by City Council on August 28
Redwood City, CA - August 25 , 2006 - 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 and honorable mentions will be honored at a special reception and City Council Meeting, where each will receive a special plaque or certificate, along with the congratulations and thanks of the Mayor and the Council, in honor of their civic pride.
The 6:30 pm reception and 7:00 pm meeting take place on Monday, August 28th at City Hall, 1017 Middlefield Road.
The annual Mayor’s Beautification Awards program, coordinated by the City’s Pride and Beautification committee, 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. The Council extends special thanks to the Civic Cultural Commission, and
Norcal Waste Systems of San Mateo County
for their support of the program.
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 program helps 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.
Following is the list of most of 2006’s winners and honorable mentions in the Mayor’s Beautification Awards (some residential winners asked that their home information and names not be publicized).
