The City of San José integrates the services provided by individual departments into City Service Areas reflecting the City's five key lines of business: Community Economic Development, Environmental & Utility Services, Public Safety, Neighborhood Services, and Transportation & Aviation Services. The Strategic Support City Service Area enables the five CSAs to provide services to the community.

The CIP Action Team oversees the capital program for each City Service Area and reports on the status of each project. A description of each City Service Area is provided below.
