City Connections: Oct. 16, 2025

Public spaces, like streets, sidewalks, and parks, are more than just parts of our city's infrastructure. They're places where we connect, commute, play, and build community. At the City of Santa Rosa, we're committed to keeping these spaces clean, safe, and accessible for everyone.

Our crews work hard to repair potholes, remove graffiti, trim trees, maintain playgrounds, repair water lines, and keep storm drains clear. These efforts improve the overall look and feel of our neighborhoods and help keep us safe by preventing accidents and reducing flooding. Well-maintained public spaces also support local businesses, encourage outdoor activity, and promote pride in our city.

We know how important these spaces are to your daily life, and we're here for you. If you notice something that needs attention-like a traffic light outage or debris on the sidewalk-you can report it by calling us, reporting it online, or using the MySantaRosa app.

Together, we can take care of the places we share and enjoy.
