Bylaw Enforcement Officer
A bylaw enforcement officer (also called municipal law enforcement or municipal enforcement) is an employee of a municipality, county or regional district, charged with the enforcement of local ordinance—bylaws, laws, codes, or regulations enacted by local governments. Bylaw enforcement officers often work closely with police and other law enforcement agencies, but are generally not considered emergency services. This terminology is commonly used in North America—particularly Canada—and some other Commonwealth countries. In the Canadian province of Ontario, bylaw enforcement officers are generally titled municipal law enforcement officers, and in Newfoundland & Labrador, Alberta and the Northwest Territories, the term municipal enforcement officer is also used. In German speaking countries the term Ordnungsamt, literally translated "Order Office", is widely used. Under other denominations, this kind of bylaw enforcement exists in several countries around the world. Deve ...

Parking Tickets
A parking violation is the act of parking a motor vehicle in a restricted place or in an unauthorized manner. It is against the law virtually everywhere to park a vehicle in the middle of a highway or road; parking on one or both sides of a road, however, is commonly permitted. However, restrictions apply to such parking, and may result in an offense being committed. Such offenses are usually cited by a police officer or other government official in the form of a traffic ticket. Examples Parking violations include, but are not limited to: * Parking in a prohibited space such as a bus stop, in front of a fire hydrant, a driveway, or a garage entrance. * Parking on a sidewalk (unless specifically allowed by signs). * Parking in, too close to, or within an intersection, railroad crossing or crosswalk. * Double parking. * Parking at a parking meter without paying, or for longer than the paid time. * Parking in a handicapped zone without an appropriate permit. * Parking on the publi ...
