Lt. Gov’s Beautification Awards Winners This year LMA presented the third annual Lt. Governor’s Beautification Awards. This program has been put in place to encourage cleanliness and beautification in our communities throughout the year. In order to qualify, municipalities must meet the criteria of both Keep Louisiana Beautiful and the Louisiana Garden Club Federation’s Cleanest Cities Contest. Keep Louisiana Beautiful is Louisiana’s premier organization in the fight against litter. Over the past decade, KLB has awarded millions in community grants to KLB affiliates, municipalities, and other non-profit organizations. The Louisiana Garden Club Federation’s Cleanest Cities Contest was started in 1958 as a means to promote a cleaner Louisiana. Louisiana is the only state to have such a program. To enter the contest, a city must be sponsored by a Federated Garden Club. The deadline for entries into the contest was February 1, 2018. A city must show evidence of the work that it has done to promote litter abatement. The following municipalities have participated in both the Cleanest City Program and Keep LA Beautiful for a full year and have completed the criteria for both programs.
