About our Programs
Rose Award
The Fairfield Beautification Commission has established the Rose Award to recognize Fairfield city residents who have improved or maintained their yard, dwelling or business and created a positive aesthetic appeal. The award is intended to inspire others to take pride in their property and to improve the overall quality of life in Fairfield.
FBC members will act as judges to select the winner of the Rose Award. The final decision will be based on evidence of the contribution to Fairfield's community appeal.
Winners of the award will receive a sign to display in their yard or window as well as a Rose Award certificate signed by our mayor.
