VOLUNTEER PARKING ENFORCEMENT PROGRAM

.content

As part of Mayor Bill White's Volunteer Initiatives Program (VIP), Parking Management holds volunteer trainings for citizens interested in getting involved in protecting their communities and helping fight disabled parking abuse.  

The Disabled Parking Volunteer Program is designed to ensure individuals whose needs require accessible parking spaces have those spaces available. With the generous help of citizen volunteers, Parking Management is better able to ensure parking space availability to those who need it most.

Volunteers are required to attend a special 2-3 hour training session and pass a background check. Once complete, volunteers are empowered to issue citations to those who abuse disabled parking spaces.

For more information about the Disabled Parking Volunteer Program, please view the below presentation or request an electronic application by e-mailing volunteer@cityofhouston.net or by calling 713.853.8275 to receive one by fax or mail.
