Volunteers will be assigned to a neighbor who needs assistance with snow removal. Upon pairing, contact information will be exchanged and communication will continue between the volunteer and resident moving forward. Snow must be removed within 24 hours of a snow fall consisting of more than 2 inches of snow. The only required section of property is the side walk in front of the home. Participating in the Snow Buster Program does not guarantee a volunteer will be available to shovel after snow events. Staff is not responsible for snow removal in the absence of a volunteer.
