All city events and activities have been postponed or cancelled until April 30, 2020 or further notice.

Community Pride Awards
The City of Southfield is currently seeking nominations for the 2018 Community Pride Awards, which recognizes Southfield residents that have gone the extra mile in their beautification efforts.
The program is coordinated by the City’s Neighborhood & Information Center and the Southfield Parks & Garden Club to promote beautification efforts throughout the city. Residents are encouraged to nominate individual homeowners, neighborhoods, condominiums, apartments and even themselves. Public buildings such as schools, churches and synagogues may also be worthy of recognition, and residents are encouraged to nominate them as well. A team of judges will tour neighborhoods and select a list of winners in early July. All winners will be honored by the mayor and city council prior to a council meeting in September.
Nomination forms are available at the City’s Neighborhood & Information Center located inside City Hall at 26000 Evergreen Road, or they can be downloaded. Pictures of properties are welcome and the condition of the entire property will be considered for judging. All nominations must be submitted by 5 p.m. on Friday, June 28, 2019. Nominations may be hand delivered to the Neighborhood & Information Center, mailed to: City of Southfield, Attn: Community Relations, 26000 Evergreen Road, P.O. Box 2055, Southfield, MI 48037-2055 or e-mail: lcarr@cityofsouthfield.com.
