Senior Assistance Program

This initiative helps residents ages 65 and older and disabled individuals with confirmed violations in these categories:

  • overgrown vegetation (lawn or alley maintenance)
  • outside placement, trash, or debris
  • tree removal or trimming if it poses a hazard

Our goal is to help senior citizens and/or disabled address these violations before they become citations that accrue fees. Each household can access this program a maximum of two times per year.
