Expansion of Street Sweeping Services

STREET SWEEPING & ENFORCEMENT

The Street Sweeping program was established in response to Federal and State Clean Water regulations to remove debris from the streets and gutters before it can enter the storm drain system. These regulations were created to provide pollution control and to reduce the flow of urban runoff entering our waterways and ocean.

Parking control provides motivation for residents to move their vehicles, which allows for more efficient sweeping and more thorough debris removal. On a weekly basis, the city's street sweepers collect nearly 70 tons of rubbish from over 1,121+ miles of streets and gutters.

All public arterial and residential streets will be swept twice per month.

If you received a parking citation due to street sweeping and would like more information, please call (800) 565-0148.  Those who wish to contest a citation must do so within 21 days of ticket issuance by visiting http://www.pticket.com/.
