City of Dallas Launches a New Partnership to Beautify City

The City of Dallas Code Compliance Services Department (CCS) announces the establishment of a strategic partnership with Keep Dallas Beautiful.  

This collaboration marks the integration of Keep Dallas Beautiful as a division under Code to leverage resources from the Keep America Beautiful network to enhance the beautification of our city.

“It’s another tool for our department to utilize for our residents as we strive to create a cleaner Dallas. Our team will continue to work with our neighbors, businesses, communities to reach this goal through our partnership with Keep Dallas Beautiful,” said Christopher Christian, Director of Code Compliance Services.  

Keep Dallas Beautiful’s mission is centered on embracing, educating, and encouraging neighborhoods to help make Dallas a cleaner city. Through community programs and volunteerism,  the core values of Keep America Beautiful and Code Compliance, emphasize the importance of beautification, litter reduction, and increased recycling.

Key programs, such as Love Your Block, Adopt-A-Spot, Community Clean Trash-Offs, Waste-in-Place Education, and our Community Hand Tool Program, have been successfully implemented.

In 2023, the aforementioned programs helped Code and Keep Dallas Beautiful work with over 2600 residents who participated in monthly community clean trash-off events, which resulted in the collection and disposal of over 275,000 pounds of bulk trash.

Through 70+ volunteer events, we collaborated with over 3000 individuals from local neighborhood associations, businesses, and community members, contributing a total of over 10,000 service hours. The revitalization of Keep Dallas Beautiful looks to build a foundation as we strive to improve the quality of life in the city of Dallas.
