Three Foley businesses have been recognized for their efforts to enhance the appearance of the city.
The city presented its annual Foley Beautification Awards to Blossman Gas on North McKenzie Street, Grounded Energy on West Myrtle Avenue and Centennial Bank on South McKenzie Street.
Plaques recognizing the businesses as Foley Beautification Award winners were presented at each location Wednesday, Aug. 12.
The awards are selected by the Foley Revitalization and Beautification Advisory Board. The presentations recognize businesses and property owners that make an extra effort to improve the appearance of their properties and surrounding areas.
Mayor Ralph Hellmich said the awards highlight the work local businesses are doing to help make Foley a more attractive community.
“Once a year, the Beautification Committee works with businesses that go above and beyond to beautify their business and their grounds, and to make things just better for not only themselves but all around them,” Hellmich said. “We appreciate that.”
The Foley City Council also presented proclamations recognizing the three award recipients at a recent council meeting.
The annual Beautification Awards are part of the city’s ongoing efforts to encourage businesses and property owners to invest in the appearance and vitality of the community.
