In order to underline the contribution of the Lorraine people to the development and the beautification of the territory, the members of the committee embellishment will walk the streets of Lorraine from June 25 to July 8 to select 60 properties that will be awarded a “Coup de Coeur” mention.
According to Mayor Jean Comtois, “The challenge will be to limit the number of favorites to 60 when we could easily select 600. The people of Lorraine are proud, many citizens are sparing no effort to develop and flower their flowerbed with care. Valuing and thanking the residents who contribute to the uniqueness of our city will undoubtedly encourage other Lorraine locals to follow suit. We all benefit from beautifying our city and making it even more attractive. »
“The general appearance of the property, the quality of the landscaping as well as the presence and variety of trees, shrubs and herbs will be taken into account during the selection. A draw will be made among all the selected properties and two winners per sector (northwest, northeast and south) will receive a gift certificate worth $ 100 exchangeable at a garden center in the region” , says city councilor Pierre Barrette, member of the beautification committee.
No registration is required. The selected properties will be identified using a poster that will be affixed to the front of the property and a door hanger left for the owner’s attention by a member of the citizen squad.
