Fwd: Public Works Winter Storm Preparation
by Highland Park Pittsburgh, PA 08 Feb '21

08 Feb '21

This is a message from Allegheny Alerts. Public Works expects snow to begin tonight between 9 p.m. and midnight and continue through tomorrow morning with a total accumulation of 2 to 4 inches. We will be deploying 24 salt trucks installed with plows as soon as the precipitation starts. If the forecast changes, we may adjust our plans. That might include bringing in more drivers and extending shifts to ensure continual coverage of our roadways until the snowfall ends on Tuesday. Snow overnight and into the beginning of the morning rush hour could be heavy at times, and drivers might experience limited visibility. Also, air and pavement temperatures are predicted to be in the middle to upper 20s, so there likely will be slick spots on roadways, especially on bridges and ramps. We urge drivers to slow down, plan additional time for their commute, leave extra space between their vehicle and the ones in front of them, and please give our salt truck drivers plenty of room to navigate. There is a chance for snow every day this week, but accumulation predictions after Tuesday are varied. We will be constantly monitoring the latest forecasts and making plans regarding additional storm systems as confidence in those forecasts becomes higher. If you experience a snow and ice removal problem on a roadway near you, please visit Who Plows My Road at http://alleghenycounty.us/whoplowsmyroad to find out who to call for assistance. -- *Highland Park Community Council* Visit our website by clicking here. <https://hpccpgh.org/>

After-School Babysitter March-June, 2021
by Sloane Davidson 07 Feb '21

07 Feb '21

Neighbors, Our amazing babysitter is leaving the state to help take care of family and we’re looking for a new member of our “pod.” We follow strict COVID procedures - mask, social distancing. Our boys have been safely in-person at school since September without incident. We would expect an agreement between all of us for what feels safe and ok for everyone. Overview: Looking for after-school care three days a week. We are flexible on which days based on your schedule. School pickup is 3PM and we’d expect you to watch our two boys (age 2 and 5) until 5:30PM. Typically our last babysitter would do a mix of crafternoons at home, nature walks, playgrounds, backyard time and on occasion places like the Carnegie Natural History Museum. School location is in Wilkinsburg and our house is in Highland Park. We’d ask that on occasion you help prep dinner, or prep snack food and that before you leave you help with light housework including cleaning up their toys, folding laundry and things that directly relate to the boys. We would be more than happy to provide references from our previous nanny and other caregivers. Please contact Sloane Davidson at sloanevdavidson(a)gmail.com with your resume or background of working with children. We will interview candidates in February, the start date is around March 1st. Pay: $18/hour Time: Mon-Wed-Thurs from 3pm-6pm Commitment: Minimum March-June. There is an opportunity to pick up more hours for July and August and stay on through the next academic year Required: - Car, driver’s license and insurance - we will provide car seats for you to use. - Clearances to work with children - Work history of working with children - References upon request Finally, we encourage those who do not have English as their first language and BIPOC to apply. Best, Sloane
