MATA supervisory staff routinely illegally park in accessible parking at the MATA North End Terminal

MATA staff parking in the marked accessible parking spaces is not only a direct insult to people with disabilities that may need the parking spaces, but an affront to all Memphis citizens that conscientiously obey the parking laws. While almost all Memphians carefully follow the parking regulations, it is irritating to see our public transit officials deliberately ignore the law. MCIL is asking MATA for a commitment that their staff will not illegally park in reserved accessible parking spaces. You are may wish to make a complaint also.
