The San Francisco, CA Local Code Shield
Professional landscaping in the city requires strict adherence to the San Francisco Public Works code, particularly regarding street tree maintenance and sidewalk encroachment permits. A qualified contractor must hold a valid C-27 Landscaping Contractor license issued by the CSLB to ensure compliance with local zoning ordinances. Failure to verify these credentials can leave property owners liable for significant fines or mandatory remediation of non-compliant hardscaping installations.
