6th District Landscape Awards contest seeks nominees

The very best in landscaping in the 6th Aldermanic District are again being sought by Alderwoman Milele A. Coggs as entries are now being accepted for the 6^th District Landscape Awards. Special recognition for outstanding residential garden or landscaping efforts is sought, and residents are invited to nominate a neighbor or themselves for a property that is especially eye-catching or has been well-landscaped.

Alderwoman Coggs has long been committed to consistently supporting and encouraging the beautification and improvement of neighborhoods, and the 6^th District Landscape Awards are a part of her Clean City Project.

“I believe it is important to recognize those residents who work extremely hard and with deep pride during a pandemic to upkeep their properties to help make our district a beautiful place to live. I am a strong believer that the visual appeal of a neighborhood can impact the quality of life of its residents, and it is an honor to be able to recognize those who go above and beyond when it comes to landscaping and gardening,” she said.

Nominees’ names and addresses can be emailed to mcoggs@milwaukee.gov for consideration, and supporting digital photos are also requested.

Nominations are due by the close of business on Friday, September 25^th.
