Winners of the 2015 Beautiful Home Awards were announced Monday, June 22, by the Florissant City Council’s Citizens Participation Committee. One winner is chosen from each of the city’s nine wards. Awardees receive recognition from the Council, a certificate of appreciation and a Beautiful Home yard sign to display. The Mayor’s Choice Award is also given and may come from any ward.
The program was established to celebrate the American Dream of home ownership. It is designed to recognize homeowners who take pride in the appearance of their home and their community. Residents may nominate their own home or other homes in the city.
To be eligible a home must be an owner-occupied single-family dwelling. Among the criteria that can contribute to the choice are landscaping, attractive exterior, overall curb appeal and maintenance of the property. Previous winners must wait for 3 years before they are eligible to compete for another award.
