On June 18, 2018 the City Council approved a 3-year agreement with Inter-Con Security Systems, Inc. to provide parking enforcement in the City of Azusa. The contract and franchise agreement include an option for it to be extended for two additional one-year extensions by mutual agreement of both parties. The first one-year extension was approved on July 1, 2021 and will expire on June 30, 2022. If approved, the second and final extension allowed under the original 2018 contract and franchise agreement will be effective July 1, 2022 and will expire June 30, 2023.
