Has your business undergone a makeover? Or have you seen a local business that makes Elk River more beautiful? The City Beautification Award brings attention and recognition to local businesses who make Elk River shine!

We'd love to help you get the recognition you deserve!

The aesthetic appeal of a community has a direct impact on the overall quality of life for a resident – which is why the City of Elk River strives to recognize those businesses who go above and beyond to make their property shine. From May to September, local businesses can enter or be nominated for a chance to win the City Beautification Award, a public acknowledgment of appreciation to business owners who’ve made an effort to clean, repair, improve, and/or enhance the overall aesthetics of their property. This could be anything from remodeling the exterior of the structure, enhancements to an outdoor space, or the addition of landscaping elements to a property.
