A Note of Thanks and Quick Reminder from Code Enforcement
Mishawaka's Code Enforcement Department would like to take this opportunity to thank those citizens who continue to maintain their sidewalks by regularly removing snow from them. Snow shoveling can be a chore however sidewalks are considered a public right-of-way and there are many people who utilize them. Snow accumulation on sidewalks is especially hazardous to children and the elderly.
Please be neighborly! Be mindful of your neighbors who may be elderly or physically unable to shovel their walks and drives. An act of kindness goes a long way.
