Snow Removal Assistance
The City of Fargo is making funds available to help low and moderate income homeowners who are elderly and/or disabled with snow removal services. Funds will be used to pay a contractor the City hires to remove snow for persons who are accepted into the program for 1) their public sidewalk; 2) their driveway; and 3) one walkway to their door. Applicants will be prioritized primarily on a first-come-first-served basis.
Eligibility
To be eligible for assistance, a person must:
- Live in their home; it cannot be rental property (unless it is a single-family home for which the tenant is responsible for snow removal).
- Be physically unable to remove snow. All household member(s) must be elderly (age 65 or older) and/or disabled (as defined by eligibility for Paratransit services).
- Have a qualifying household income (see below chart). Income eligibility will be determined by your 2023 household income (includes the unadjusted gross income earned by everyone living in your household over the age of 18). Please note that Social Security and Pension benefits are included as income.
