PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Throughout August and September, Price Chopper and Market 32 are teaming up with the American Red Cross to raise funds in support of Red Cross disaster relief efforts.

Until September 30, Price Chopper/Market 32 customers will have the opportunity to round up their change at the register, and all monies raised will be donated to the American Red Cross. Price Chopper/Market 32 will match all donations, up to $10,000.

"Price Chopper/Market 32 is gratified to continue its decades-long collaborative effort with the American Red Cross to assist those impacted by disasters big and small, close to home and across the country. This year, with so many here in the Northeast suffering from storm damage while others are preparing for a busy hurricane season, we're proud to join our customers and teammates alike to support our neighbors and friends," said Blaine Bringhurst, Price Chopper/Market 32's president.

The American Red Cross prevents and alleviates human suffering in the face of emergencies by mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors. From hurricanes to fires to floods, the American Red Cross responds to nearly 64,000 disasters each year and 95% of their disaster relief workers are volunteers.

Pittsfield Road Cut Moratorium

PITTSFIELD, Mass. — The city's annual city road cut moratorium will be in effect from Nov. 29, 2024 to March 15, 2025. 
 
The road cut moratorium is implemented annually, as a precautionary measure, to ensure roads are kept clear of construction work during snow events and to limit the cuts in roads that are filled with temporary patches while material is unavailable.
 
During this period, steel plates are not to be used to cover open excavations in roads. Also, the Department of Public Services and Utilities will not be issuing the following permits:
 
• General Permit
• Sewer Public Utility Connection Permit
• Stormwater Public Utility Connection Permit
• Water Public Utility Connection Permit
• Trench Permit
 
Limited exceptions will be made for emergency work that is determined to be an immediate threat to the health or safety of a property or its occupants.
