The Cache Valley Volunteer Center is inviting people who are elderly, disabled, home-bound or have other limitations to get help shoveling their walks this winter through the Sidewalk Snow Removal Assistance program.
Snow Removal Assistance is in its second year. The program was instigated by Logan city to ensure sidewalks are cleared in accordance with city code, understanding that some people are physically unable to do so.
“It was pretty successful last year,” said Debra Byington, outreach specialist at the center. “There were about 25 (individuals served). We’re hoping for more this year.”
The volunteer center works with different community groups to have them shovel walks after each snowfall, she said. Typically, they can get the walks shoveled within the day or evening after a storm.
Byington said if people signed up last winter, they need to sign up again if they want snow removal services this year.
To sign up for snow removal, call Byington at 764-6311.
