Keep Louisiana Beautiful
has once again recognized the City of Thibodaux’s efforts to beautify our
community and eradicate litter. Mayor Kevin Clement announced today that Keep
Louisiana Beautiful has awarded the City $4,633 grant to help beautify Downtown
Thibodaux and Bayou Lafourche.
“A visually appealing
community increases property values, attracts businesses, and improves the
City’s image,” said Mayor Kevin Clement. “Beauty is one of the three most
influential factors in community
attachment, which
means loyalty. A nice-looking neighborhood or public space also
promotes good behavior and accountability.”
This grant will be used
to purchase plantings and perform landscaping at the City’s new Downtown
Thibodaux Pavilion. The City of Thibodaux’s Parks and Recreation Department
prides itself in the beautification of the City as well as its Parks. The City
of Thibodaux anticipates that by beautifying this area will in turn make it
more inviting to the community. The City of Thibodaux hopes this facility will
attract residents and visitors alike to come enjoy one of the City’s beautiful
outdoor facilities.
Mayor Kevin Clement also
encourages any groups or individuals who want to volunteer for an upcoming
litter clean-up event this spring to contact Todd Dugruise at (985) 324-6602.
