San Leandro scaffolding over public right-of-way requires encroachment permit from Public Works. Cal/OSHA Title 8 scaffold safety standards apply statewide.
San Leandro Municipal Code Title 7 regulates encroachments into the public right-of-way, including scaffolding, pedestrian canopies, and sidewalk closures during construction. An encroachment permit from the Engineering & Transportation Department is required before placing scaffold in any public area. Scaffold erection on private property must comply with California Building Code Chapter 33 and Cal/OSHA Title 8 §1637-1670. Pedestrian protection is required when scaffold is within 20 feet of public walkways.
Work without encroachment permit may be stopped immediately. Fines escalate for repeat violations under SLMC Title 1.
