The Beautification Office encompasses a multi-faceted group
of programs ranging from regulatory control oversight to
preserving, sustaining and enhancing the beauty of our Tennessee
landscapeThe Outdoor Advertising Control, Vegetation Control,
and Junkyard Control programs are regulatory in nature and
sanctioned by statute. The Litter Grant Program allocates
funding for all 95 Tennessee counties for litter abatement and
litter prevention education.
The Adopt-A-Highway, Scenic Highways, and Gateways to
Tennessee programs advocate environmental stewardship through
partnerships and networking with community groups, individuals,
civic groups, non-profits, government agencies, and businesses.
These programs feature opportunities for citizens to participate
in the preservation of scenic vistas, building and maintaining
of new landscapes, and roadside litter pickup activities.
“Keep Tennessee Beautiful” is more than a phrase. It involves
the dedication and effort of everyone to ensure the pristine
beauty found in Tennessee remains for the enjoyment of future
generations.
