'Boulevard Beautification' in Wheatfield

It’s time for getting festive in the Town of Wheatfield.

The Wheatfield Enhancement Volunteers reports its second annual winter holidays “Boulevard Beautification” event is now underway.

A press release noted the Town of Wheatfield is leading the effort with holiday decorations placed in the garden area at the intersection of Nash Road and Niagara Falls Boulevard, and on the Town Hall campus. Participation of residents and businesses along the boulevard is voluntary.

“We invite residents and businesses along Niagara Falls Boulevard to decorate for the holiday season. The goal is for the boulevard to be ‘festive.’ ”

The group advises that, since Niagara Falls Boulevard is a state route, any decorating of the highway areas is not permitted. But holiday decorating of private properties on both sides of the roadway is allowed. Participants on the north of the boulevard who front Sawyer Creek are advised to limit their decorating to lands north of the creek.

“Please share your pictures on social media … #blvdbeautification,” the group requested.
