What is the right- of- way distance on (any City street)?

The rights-of-way vary from street to street and may even vary in different portions of the same street.  A common right- of -way width is 60 or 66 feet; however some are 70, 80 or 100 feet. Original plat maps, available for review on request at the City Permit Center, show the platted right-of-way dimensions. Please keep in mind that the center of an existing road is not always the center of a right-of-way.
 

Can I plant/cut down a tree in the Right-of-Way (ROW)?

The City’s Engineering Design Standards address the plantings in the ROW.  In general, vegetation can be planted, but it must meet very specific requirements.  Cutting of vegetation in the ROW is not allowed without approval and may require a permit.  The specifications are included in the City’s Engineering Design Standards.  For additional information contact Francesca Franklin at 379-5093.
 

What do the different colored marks in the street mean?

Most often you are seeing marks to locate utilities buried underground in the street. Before anyone can dig they must call Utilities Underground Location Center at 1-800-424-5555.  This service is free of charge, but you must call at least two business days before you dig. The colors stand for different utilities.
