The purpose and effect of the Rule Relating to Traffic & Parking Enforcement is to provide for efficient and effective District operations and to repeal and replace all prior rules and policies established for traffic and parking enforcement, including but not limited to those set forth under Resolutions 2007-08 and 2010-14.
