The Town of Plain Dealing receives 5 Trash Receptacles Through Keep Louisiana Beautiful Grant to prevent litter in Plain Dealing, LA.
Plain Dealing, Louisiana – Town of Plain Dealing is pleased to be selected as one of the 47 recipients of the 2025-26 Keep Louisiana Beautiful Trash Receptacle Grant Program made possible with funding from the State of Louisiana and Office on the Lieutenant Governor. The Town of Plain Dealing will install 5 trash receptacles at the Town of Plain Dealing Community Center and the Town of Plain Dealing City Park.
Through the 2025-26 Trash Receptacle Grant Program, Keep Louisiana Beautiful awarded 230 receptacles to 47organizations in 31 parishes. As part of the requirements of this grant, the Town of Plain Dealing will perform a post installation litter scan and compare the data collected to preliminary scan results. Data will be shared with the public once available. With these new receptacles installed, we will be able to reduce litter in the Town of Plain Dealing and keep our community clean and beautiful.
“Recent data collected by Keep Bossier Beautiful shows a reduction of litter by 78 percent in areas where trash receptacles are properly installed and maintained” says Susan Russell, KLB Executive Director. “One of our organization’s key initiatives is to help build infrastructure that supports clean, Beautiful communities. Funding trash receptacles is one way we do that. Congratulation to the Town of Plain Dealing for being selected as a 2025-26 Trash Receptacle Grant recipient.”
