REASONS FOR THE CONTEST: We have learned that - aside from neighborhood improvements and beautification - ancillary benefits appear:

Neighborhood stability
Increase in property values
Decrease in adult and juvenile crime
Development of civic interest and community pride

These hard working people - like all of us - appreciate recognition for a job well done. To be considered, in competition with other top-achievers, is in itself an honor, but to be selected as the leading Clean Block, is high praise indeed. Cash prizes are awarded for use in the Block Treasury to promote further improvements.
