Implementasi Peraturan Daerah Kota Pekanbaru No 5 Tahun 2002 Tentang Ketertiban Umum (Studi Penertiban Pedagang Kaki Lima Di Kecamatan Senapelan)

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of Pekanbaru City Regional Regulation No. 5 of 2002 concerning Public Order, particularly in the context of controlling street vendors (PKL) in Senapelan District. The problem arises from the use of public spaces such as sidewalks and roads by street vendors, which causes traffic congestion, sanitation issues, and a decline in urban aesthetics. Although the Kodim Market area on Jalan Teratai has now been officially recognized as a traditional market by the Pekanbaru City Government, problems related to order and spatial arrangement persist.This research employs a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data collection techniques include field observation, in-depth interviews with Civil Service Police Unit (Satpol PP) officers and street vendors, as well as field documentation. The analysis is based on public policy implementation theory, which includes aspects of communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure.The findings indicate that the implementation of Regional Regulation No. 5 of 2002 has not been optimal. The challenges include a shortage of Satpol PP personnel, ineffective relocation sites for street vendors, weak inter-agency coordination, and inadequate dissemination of regulations to the vendors. Moreover, enforcement efforts tend to be temporary, as many street vendors return to their original locations shortly after being removed.It can be concluded that the efforts to enforce public order in Senapelan District still require stronger policy implementation, improved supervision, and cross-sectoral synergy to achieve sustainable urban order
