"Let the meter expire, even for a minute or two, and there's a parking officer issuing a ticket.

Park too close to a driveway or ignore a permit-only sign and again it's ticket time."





In the 80s a Houston city councilman had two questions about parking enforcement, over a few years how, what had been four white women, been replaced by 17 black women, and how, as a result of that, had revenue gone from something like $175,00.00 (per some period) to about $60,000.00.

Was the Councilman given an answer and was he reelected?
