East Windsor Seeks Nominations for Township Business Awards

East Windsor Township is currently seeking nominations for the 2013 Township Business Awards Program, Mayor Janice Mironov announced this week. The program is meant to highlight local businesses that strive to enhance the community or contribute in some way.

The three categories of Township award recognition are:

1. Business Beautification - creating an attractive appearance, for example, through landscaping, flowers, and other enhancements to their structures and site
2. Community Service - providing for community contributions and service
3. Community Enhancement - providing some manner of community enhancement, for example, through extraordinary job creation, an unusual or special product or opportunity or any community value added aspect related to their business

“This program was created to give well deserved recognition to businesses who have made special efforts to enhance our community, Mayor Mironov stated. "It also highlights the importance which our community gives to local business owners and operators.”

Nomination forms are available at the Municipal Building, at the Hickory Corner and Twin Rivers branch public libraries, and posted online at www.east-windsor.nj.us. The deadline for nominations is Sept. 17.

A Selection Committee will review all nominations and select the winning businesses. The awards to the businesses selected will be made at a Township Council meeting in the fall.
