The City of Zachary is proud to announce that it has been awarded a Keep Louisiana Beautiful Trash Receptacle Grant. Through this initiative, four new “Let Louisiana Shine – Stop Littering” receptacles have been installed at the newly constructed Zachary Police Station on Old Slaughter Road.
The purpose of this grant is to help communities reduce litter and maintain cleaner, more attractive public spaces. Research shows that the presence of properly placed and maintained trash receptacles can reduce litter by as much as 78 percent.
“We are grateful for this opportunity to partner with Keep Louisiana Beautiful and the State of Louisiana,” said [Insert City Official’s Name/Title]. “These receptacles are an important step in our commitment to keeping Zachary clean and welcoming for residents and visitors alike.”
The City of Zachary extends its appreciation to Keep Louisiana Beautiful, the State of Louisiana, and the Office of the Lieutenant Governor for their continued support in promoting a cleaner, greener community.
