Comment from Robin R Reisner: I'm looking to see if I can get some help for my parents who live in Fredericksburg Iowa. They're in a very limited budget. Their sidewalk is sinking and cracking and buckling.I didn't know if there was some kind of assistance to build a deck in a ramp because my dad is handicapped he's diabetic he can't get around very well and he has a pacemaker. very concerned about the safety of people walking on the sidewalk. I don't expect anything to happen now due to the weather but maybe spring. That would be better but that's a short notice. My number is 612-723-3277. if you're not able to give assistance to have any other information that you could share with me.
