LANGLEY AIR FORCE BASE, Va. –
On Aug. 16, Airman Dormitory Leaders began issuing parking citations for vehicles illegally parked in the areas marked "Residents only Parking" near the Airman dormitories.
Master Sgt. Tricia Evans, 633d Civil Engineer Squadron senior ADL, said the guidelines for receiving a parking citation can be found in Langley Air Force Base Air Force Instruction I31-204.
"Parking restrictions are established to better manage on-base parking areas, support the mission, and encourage participation in the government's policy on energy conservation and a cleaner environment," she said.
According to the AFI, unauthorized vehicles will not be parked in areas marked or designated as reserved parking nor will a vehicle be parked where it is prohibited by signs, markings, or other provisions of this code, except those provisions granted to emergency vehicle operators. Parking is prohibited in all areas not designated by two white lines.
Additionally, for violations discovered while the vehicle is unattended, the license plate number will be suitable evidence that the registered owner of the vehicle is the person responsible for the violation.
Parking enforcement will be reduced during periods of increased readiness conditions and readiness exercises if day-to-day procedures affect military efficiency.
