See full Management Plan here: (File:Telegraph Business Improvement District 2015 Management Plant.pdf)

From p.15:

1- Public Rights of Way and Sidewalk Operations (PROWSO): $ 290,000 60%

Examples of these special benefit services are allocated per benefit zone with Benefit Zone 1 parcels receiving a higher frequency of services relative to the Benefit Zone 2 and 3 parcels. All of these services will not replace or reduce current city services but will rather enhance services above their current general benefit level. Costs may include, but are not limited to:

 Regular sidewalk and gutter sweeping;
 Payment for debt services related to new pedestrian lighting;
 Median landscaping along 40th Street;
 Respond to complaints of aggressive panhandling;
 Timely graffiti removal, within 24 hours as necessary
 Tree and vegetation planting and maintenance
 Regular sidewalk steam cleaning
 Placement of additional trash receptacles;
 May consider private security services on bike or patrol on a situational basis as needed;

Level of PROWSO Special Service Frequency as determined by Benefit Zone:

Benefit Zone Sidewalk Sweeping

Zone 1: 5 – 6 days per week
Zone 2: 2 - 3 days per week
Zone 3: 2 - 3 days per week
