AN ACT to amend and reenact §8-14-5a of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, relating to expanding the power of municipal parking authority officers to ticket for municipal parking violations.

Be it enacted by the Legislature of West Virginia:
That §8-14-5a of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, be amended and reenacted to read as follows:

ARTICLE 14. LAW AND ORDER; POLICE FORCE OR DEPARTMENTS; ETC.

(a) A municipality or parking authority created by a municipality may employ parking enforcement officers, whose sole duties are to patrol and to enforce municipal parking ordinances upon or within designated municipal parking areas and upon municipal streets. Parking enforcement officers may sign complaints and issue citations.
(b) Parking enforcement officers shall:
(1) Be in uniform;
(2) Display a badge or other sign of authority; and
(3) Serve at the will and pleasure of their employer.
(c) The governing body of the municipality may require the parking enforcement officers to give a surety bond, payable to the municipality.
