2018 Alexandria Beautification Awards…We want YOUR input.

Each year, the Alexandria Beautification Commission, a volunteer commission that advises the Mayor and City Council on City beautification, holds the “Alexandria Beautification Awards.” The annual beautification awards recognize residential, commercial, and community efforts to contribute to the beautification of neighborhoods and public vistas throughout the City. Awards are handed out in a variety of categories related to landscape design, architectural design, sustainable design and community improvement.

The Commission is currently seeking nominations from the public. Each spring Commission members canvas neighborhoods throughout the City in search of properties with newly upgraded, well-maintained or newly sustainable landscapes. But we need YOUR help, please click the link below and nominate a neighbor, a business, a newly upgraded space or building. We are excited to have your input. Nominations for the 2018 awards are due June 1, 2018. CLICK HERE to Make a Nomination.

Awards are given in six categories: Excellence in Architecture Excellence in Sustainable Design Green Practices Award Community Beautification Residential Beautification Commercial Beautification. Click here for Full List of Criteria for Alexandria Beautification Awards

Awards will be presented to winners by the Mayor and City Council during the fall ceremony. Thank you for taking the time to make a nomination and for helping keep Alexandria beautiful! Questions?
