Update laws governing when companies and residents can use city streets and sidewalks

Police & Community SafetyGovernance

In Plain English

The city currently has 2 separate laws covering street excavations and private encroachments into public spaces like sidewalks. This combines them into 1 streamlined law that covers utilities digging up streets, residents building driveways, and companies installing equipment. The updated rules aim to reduce street disruptions and coordinate multiple construction projects.
