"Would you want to get a parking ticket from a guy in a T-shirt?" Public Services Director Bob Ryan said. "Parking officers and code officers wear distinguishable clothing so people know they're for real."

"That kind of is what it is to keep them in clean uniforms that keep them respectful of our public," Ryan said.
