Snow Removal

To all,

Please consider this a gentle remind for all of us to be good neighbors and clear the snow off the sidewalks at our locations. You may already know that this is the responsibility of the individual property or business owner.

I know full well that we could all drive or walk around our neighborhoods and see more that don’t do this than those who do, but let’s all become a model for our neighbors and those who drive down our streets.

I have heard from many of you and seen for myself the numbers of pedestrians that are forced to walk in the streets because many residents do not shovel their sidewalks. This presents our community with an opportunity to improve the neighborhoods in which we live.

Please take a few moments and, if you are able, shovel out our sidewalks. Be careful, of course, but working together, we can make our neighborhoods safer and more pleasant places to live and raise our families.

Thanks to each of you,
