To preserve the natural landscaped beauty of Hercules and to prevent fires, the Public Works Department inspects and controls open-space brush and street weeds located on Hercules property.

The City of Hercules also has an annual Fire Breaks Program to control brush and weeds near privately owned property. 

If you have a comment or complaint about weed abatement please call us at (510) 799-8200 or (510) 799-8252 or complete the Hercules Connect.
