RAVE! Award - Residential Property Recognition

Residential Property Recognition Program Nomination Form

The annual New Hope RAVE! Award Program recognizes the efforts of New Hope residents who put a lot of time and energy into maintaining or improving their homes to make them something special. The New Hope City Council encourages residents to nominate a neighbor who takes exceptional pride of ownership or who is particularly attentive to maintaining their residential property. Self nominations are also encouraged.

Properties may be nominated in one of several categories:

• general property maintenance and improvements
• remodel, renovation, or addition
• landscaping
• gardens
• environmentally sensitive improvements (i.e. rain garden, green building, etc.)
• Other

Award recipients will receive an engraved garden stone or plaque to display in their home or garden, have their name and address engraved on a plaque displayed at City Hall, be recognized at a CIty Council meeting, and highlighted in the In Touch city newsletter.

The deadline for the 2012 RAVE! Awards is August 1, 2012. To make a nomination, download a Residential Property Recognition Program Nomination Form or contact the Community Development Department at 763-531-5110 or via email. When you have completed the form, simply print it out and mail it to the city.
