Plow companies across our Northeast Ohio are facing staffing shortages or are simply booked solid, and several cities with free snow removal service programs are already at capacity.
"It's been challenging the last week and then this week's storm to get into the neighborhoods and to get those cleared," said Mayor Tim Degeetr."In Parma, we have over 500 miles of roads. So big snowstorms with 120 cul de sacs, it takes us a good 24 hours to clear the entire city.""We have three shifts. We have service workers and plows out constantly around the clock on it, so there are no snowplows just sitting in the garage.
Currently, the city does have a parking ban in effect so plows can get through streets to clear the piling snow. But DeGeeter said since last week they've handed out around 200 citations to people disregarding the ban. LakewoodAlive has been around for nearly 18 years. The nonprofit assists resident in a variety of areas from home repairs to painting to shoveling snow. But staff with the organization said their waiting list for snow removal is growing by the day.
LakewoodAlive's policy is if there are at least two inches of snow on the ground, they'll be at your house within 24 hours. Now, they're asking for help - either with volunteers or even by just helping those who may live on either side of you.
