Fwd: City of Pittsburgh Snow Angels are Here! ❄❄❄
by Highland Park Pittsburgh, PA 09 Nov '20

Winter is Just Around the Corner ❄️Snow Angels are Here to Help! ❄️ Pittsburgh's winters present challenges for some neighbors. The City of Pittsburgh Snow Angels program connects neighbors in need to nearby volunteers who shovel and salt their property when it snows. *Neighbors Helping Neighbors * Snow-covered sidewalks can be hazardous for everyone. The City of Pittsburgh’s Snow Angels Program pairs older residents and residents with disabilities with nearby neighbors who volunteer to assist them with snow removal on their sidewalks and walkways. Along with fostering stronger community relationships and relieving some of the stress that comes from a snowfall or freeze, Snow Angels make our sidewalks safer for those who are outside during the winter weather – like postal carriers, firefighters, police officers, and other neighbors. *Why Volunteer? *🌨️ Because helping your neighbors is SNOW much fun! - You can sign up online to offer help as a volunteer. - The Snow Angels Program will work to pair you with a nearby neighbor. - We will be in touch when you have been matched with a neighbor in need.

Recycling yard signs
by Saenz Robles, Maria T 08 Nov '20

08 Nov '20

Dear neighbors, The HP list previously sent the message below, but I suspect that we all might have been a little preoccupied with other things and perhaps we did not pay much attention to it. We plan to recycle our yard sign and will be happy to take yours as well to the City recycling center by November 25th. If interested, please drop off the sign/s at our driveway (1108 Heberton Street) before that date. Depending on the number of signs I might be doing more than one trip to the recycling center. Of course, you can also separate the metal part and recycle it at Construction Juction (big orange mix metal container at the bottom) and take the plastic with your other plastic bags to Giant Eagle or Target to be recycled. Thanks! Mayte Sáenz Public Works and Clean Pittsburgh Commission Offer Campaign Sign Recycling PITTSBURGH, PA (November 3, 2020) With election season is coming to an end the Department of Public Works, in conjunction with the Clean Pittsburgh Commission, recently announced an opportunity for residents to take their civic engagement to the next level by recycling their campaign yard signs after this year’s general election. Drop off locations will be available at three Department of Public Works Divisions across the City of Pittsburgh. Drop offs will be accessible Monday through Friday from 6 a.m. – 2 p.m. and will run from November 4th through December 4th. Both the plastic film and the metal stands that make up election campaign signs are recyclable. Participants must sperate the materials before dropping off at one of the City’s Division locations Part of a community group interested in organizing a local pickup for signs? Visit this registration link to register today: https://pittsburghpa.gov/dpw/volunteer-apps/volunteer-form/index.html<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpittsburg…>. “It is hard to drive on any street and not notice at least one campaign sign,” said Omoye Aikhuele, City of Pittsburgh Recycling Specialist and member of the Clean Pittsburgh Commission. “These signs cannot be collected through the curbside recycling program, and unfortunately, most of them will end up at the landfill or as litter. Offering drop off locations will minimize waste and allow us to capture these materials; both of which can be recycled through special programs.” Three Department of Public Works Division Drop-Off Centers will be available from 6 a.m – 2 p.m. Monday through Friday. They are: East End Drop-Off Center 2nd Division of Public Works 6814 Hamilton Ave., Pittsburgh, PA 15208<webextlink://6814%20Hamilton%20Ave.,%20Pittsburgh,%20PA%2015208> 412-665-3609 Hazelwood Drop-Off Center 3rd Division of Public Works 40 Melanchton St., Pittsburgh, PA 15207<webextlink://40%20Melanchton St.,%20Pittsburgh,%20PA%2015207> 412-422-6524 West End Drop-Off Center 5th Division of Public Works 1330 Hassler St., Pittsburgh, PA 15220<webextlink://1330%20Hassler%20St.,%20Pittsburgh,%20PA%2015220> 412-937-3054 Residents can visit https://pittsburghpa.gov/dpw/yard-sign-recycling<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpittsburg…> for more information.
