Thank You for Your Service to PHX

The City recently recognized 133 employees for their City service. The honorees celebrated quinquennial work anniversaries, ranging from 25 to 35 years, during the second quarter of 2026. They were acknowledged at the City Manager’s Quarterly Service Awards event for their hard work, commitment, and contributions to the City and its residents, businesses, and visitors.

Employee Parking Reminder

To keep our parking areas safe and accessible for everyone, please park only in designated employee spaces.

For those who use the Adams Street Garage, parking is permitted only in authorized employee spaces. The second floor is reserved for specific users. Carpool, electric vehicle (EV), and Boards and Commissions spaces are not available for general employee parking EV charging stations are for electric vehicles only, and vehicles must be moved once charging is complete or after four hours, whichever comes first, to ensure others have access

While the opening of the new Police Headquarters has increased demand in the east wing of the garage, there are enough regular parking spots for those with a parking pass. Please plan accordingly.

At off-site locations, do not park in ADA-accessible spaces, fire lanes, visitor parking, or loading zones. Employees should use only designated employee parking areas. Parking in unauthorized locations may result in corrective action.

Thank you for your cooperation in helping maintain a safe, respectful, and efficient parking experience for everyone
