Report an Obstruction on a Street, Sidewalk or Other Right-of-Way

The “right-of-way” is the area between neighboring properties and includes street surfaces, curbs, the sidewalk, and frequently includes additional areas on either side of the sidewalk. The size and configuration of the right-of-way varies from street to street, as do the sizes of the actual street surfaces and sidewalks. It is owned by the public and managed by the City. If something is placed in or obstructs the use of the right of way, the City must grant permission for approved use. There are several different city entities involved in managing the right of way. To ensure a timely response to an obstruction in the right-of-way, use this form below to ensure the concern is routed to the appropriate entity.
