Open source →In addition to maintaining nearly 300 parks, the City’s Park & Recreation Department also mows and maintains rights of way, medians, City facilities and alleys. With the adoption of the Fiscal Year 2026 budget in September, City Council broadened the Unimproved Alley Mowing Program (U-AMP) to include all accessible unpaved alleys across the city.
The expansion is supported by $2.3 million in first-year funding, nearly doubling the number of alleys maintained through the program. Previously, about 1,235 of the city’s roughly 2,300 unpaved alleys were included in U-AMP.
Going forward, residents will no longer need to submit one-time mowing requests, as all accessible unimproved alleys are now covered under the program.
Initial clearing of newly added alleys is scheduled to take place between November and March, with routine mowing set to start during the growing season. Mowing schedules will vary based on vegetation growth and weather conditions.
Services covered under U-AMP include mowing, tree trimming and litter removal.
Residents interested in planting pollinator-friendly plants or maintaining the alley behind their home should note that unimproved alleys may be adopted through the City’s Adopt-a-Spot Program.
More details about the City’s mowing and maintenance services are available on the website.
