Bureau of Street Services
The Bureau's objective is to enhance public safety, mobility, health, and neighborhood quality of life by revitalizing the
streetscape. Its three outcome goals are to (i) improve the quality of the road surface, (ii) maintain a safe, clean and
green public right-of-way, and (iii) build streetscape improvements. The four core programs that support these outcome
goals are Pavement Preservation, Urban Forestry, Motorized Street Sweeping, and Enforcement. Pavement
Preservation includes resurfacing, slurry seal, small asphalt repairs, and the Pavement Management System, which
maintains a comprehensive database of road surface conditions throughout the city. Urban Forestry includes the
management and care of street trees and landscaped median islands and the issuance of permits relating to trees on
both public and private property. Motorized Street Sweeping is primarily focused on posted routes in which sweeping
occurs on a weekly basis. The Bureau's Investigation and Enforcement Division issues a wide variety of permits
relating to construction and special events taking place within the public right-of-way and responds to complaints
regarding violation of city codes including illegal dumping, vending, and water discharge. The Bureau's Engineering
and Special Projects divisions use a design-build approach to construct streetscape improvements, including curb
ramps, bus pads, median islands, bikeways, and customized streetscape improvements, in response to community
needs. The Bureau also enforces the weed abatement ordinance on private, unimproved parcels outside of the high
fire severity zone.
