Gentle Reminder...
Please Keep Sidewalks Clear
We know times are tough, and parking around our neighborhood only seems to be getting tougher. But, blocking the sidewalk creates a hardship for people walking, with strollers, and in wheelchairs. Please do your part to keep the sidewalks in front of your home clear.
