Press Release Published on Thursday, January 4, 2024, at 11:40 AM: 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. To learn more about Keep Louisiana Beautiful’s grant opportunities, visit www.keeplouisianabeautiful.org.
