In 2007, a recognition program was implemented to spotlight businesses for their efforts in bringing pride to their establishment and the community.
Each month during the spring and summer the Mayor or a Councilmember selects the winning recipient.
Judging is based on: overall appearance, swept sidewalks, clean windows, window presentation, outdoor flower displays (weeded and watered) and absence of trash.
The monthly winner is awarded bragging rights, a certificate to display in their place of business and is spotlighted here and on social media.
