Hoffman Estates to honor homes for sustainable practices
Hoffman Estates' Sustainability Commission is accepting nominations for the village's Community Pride Recognition Awards, which honors property owners for their beautiful landscaping or their commitment to "green" practices.
Nominations must be submitted by July 31. Awards will be given in three categories: detached single-family home; attached single-family home; and neighborhood or homeowners association.
Special recognition will be given for properties that incorporate sustainable landscaping practices, including the use of rain barrels, composting or nontoxic pest/weed control. Photographs will be taken in early August of areas viewable from the street.
