We are all very
exited to be underway with the construction of our Lakefront
improvements at Community Park. The Start of the project has brought
many questions from residents about the project.
Please visit the FAQ page
for answers.
Another grant
application for our community housing improvement program has been
approved!! This program provides assistance, for people who qualify,
to have repairs made on their homes. We have been funded by this
grant for $500,000. By the end of this cycle, we will have invested
over $1 million of state grant money into our housing stock. This
program is one of the reasons Sheffield Lake has had some of the
highest property value gains in the area. If you know someone who
may want to apply, please encourage them to call City Hall.
Also, as you may
have read in The Morning Journal, our Federal grant application has
been approved to purchase new gear for our firefighters and to make
some upgrades to the station. The award totals $82,830.

Fire Department "File of
Life"
The Sheffield Lake Fire
Department, in cooperation with EMH Regional Medical Center, is
providing the “File of Life” medical packet to anyone who is interested.
Simply stop by the Fire
Station at 609 Harris Road and request your free packet. Inside the
packet is an informational form for you to fill out. You can fill out
information to include your medical conditions, medications, allergies
and who to contact in case of an emergency. There is a sticker in the
packet to attach to your entrance door, alerting emergency responders
that you have made this information available. The packet has a
magnetic strip, so that it can be attached to the refrigerator in your
home, making it easy to locate.
Fire Fighters and
Paramedics can quickly retrieve information during an emergency; a time
when some can easily forget important details or be unable to
communicate with rescuers.
Stop by the Fire
Department today, and pick up your free packet. If your mobility is
impaired, simply call the Fire Station at 949-8182 and we will make
arrangements to deliver one to you.
