From the Niagara Falls Review:
Niagara Falls is blooming brilliant!
That’s the consensus from a group of judges who toured the city during the summer as part of the Communities in Bloom contest.
Recently, judges awarded Niagara Falls five blooms in the annual competition, the highest rating available.
This was the city’s first entry into the program that’s designed to foster civic pride, environmental responsibility and beautification through community participation and the challenge of friendly competition.
Led by the city’s Park in the City committee, Niagara Falls competed in the 50,001 to 100,000 population category.
Judges toured the city for two days in July and gave marks for criteria including tidiness, landscaped areas, turf and ground covers, and community involvement.
The city received a total of 822 marks out of a possible 1,000, an 82 per cent rating.
“I am so proud of our city,” said Mayor Ted Salci. “Our residents, our BIAs and volunteers all did exceptional work, and our city has never looked as good as it has this past summer.”
