City of Pittsburgh Deconstruction Policy
The City will establish a deconstruction policy to ensure equity in the rehabilitation of blighted Environmental Justice (EJ) communities. The policy will prioritize those most impacted and guarantee access to community resources and tools for managing waste, pollution, and environmental hazards (e.g., abandoned vehicles, tires, debris).
