Mayor Timothy J. Davlin
has presented awards in the
city’s fifth annual, local beautification contest, Springfield In Bloom. This
neighborhood improvement initiative spearheaded by Illinois Times and
Springfield Green called on residents, neighborhood groups and businesses to
nominate both new and existing landscaping projects that they feel were making
the biggest impacts on street-side beautification. Click

Springfield Green
is dedicated to the beautification of the Capital City area, benefiting the
environment, and improving the quality of life for everyone, resident and
visitor alike, whose backbone is its partnership with local businesses and
volunteers.
