<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the conflict and ambiguity in the implementation of Sidoarjo Regent Regulation Number 84 of 2017 concerning the Arrangement and Empowerment of Street Vendors (PKL). The research applies a descriptive qualitative approach, using interviews, observation, and documentation as data collection techniques. The findings indicate that conflicts arise due to differing approaches among implementing agencies—particularly between the Department of Cooperatives and the Civil Service Police Unit (Satpol PP)—as well as enforcement procedures that do not meet the expectations of street vendors. Ambiguity stems from unclear authority distribution, weak data collection, overlapping regulations, and uncertainty in relocation and empowerment programs. Based on Richard E. Matland’s Ambiguity-Conflict Model, the policy’s implementation falls under the Symbolic Implementation category, marked by both high conflict and high ambiguity, leading to ineffective execution and stakeholder frustration. These findings highlight the need for better inter-agency coordination, regulatory socialization, and the development of strategic vendor locations to ensure a fair and sustainable policy implementation.
