2009 CLCA San Diego Beautification Awards

Awards List | Committee | Judges | Sponsors

With growing concerns over the continued availability of water in the San Diego region, licensed landscape contractors are working to conserve this precious resource while still maintaining San Diego's unique beauty through the careful design, installation and management of the county's landscapes. The efforts of these stewards of our environment were recognized on June 26th at the California Landscape Contractors Association's Annual Beautification Awards Program hosted by the San Diego Chapter. The program was held at the Joan Kroc Institute for Peach and Justice at the University of San Diego, and recognized excellence in landscape construction and maintenance through competition among California licensed landscape professionals.
