Adopt-A-Planter Program for Business & Property Owners
The City of Highland Park has developed an Adopt-A-Planter Program for business and property owners, in Central Business District, to beautify the City’s planters in a continuing effort to enhance the downtown. The City is looking for business and property owners to “adopt” a municipal planter as part of this program during summer and fall seasons each year.
For each adopted planter, participants are encouraged to display a small placard with the Adopter’s name and business as well as the landscaper. If you would like to become an Adopter for the first time, please contact the Public Works Department Forestry Section at 847.432.0807 to discuss the program.
