Keep
Macon-Bibb Beautiful Commission (KMBBC) along with its community partners,
builds and sustains a safer, healthier and a more livable community.
KMBBC is a non-profit organization that strives to inform, educate
and generate positive attitudes toward litter prevention, beautification
and community improvement, and the minimization of solid waste.
Keep Macon-Bibb Beautiful Commission is recognized as the Model
Program for the Nation's first Commission under the Keep America
Beautiful, Inc. Systems. KMBBC was created by a joint ordinance
of the city and county in 1974. It is composed of a 28 member (14
city, 14 county) appointed body organized "to promote public
interest in the general improvement of the environment of the Macon-Bibb
community".
Its ultimate success led to the creation of the first state KAB
system- Keep Georgia Beautiful in1978 and the creation of its own
beautification/signature event - The Macon
Cherry Blossom Festival, in 1983.
