In a bid to enhance safety and responsiveness in public spaces, the Phoenix Parks and Recreation Department has launched a new 24/7 Parks Code of Conduct Answering Service. This service, accessible at 602-534-9919, enables residents to report any code of conduct violations or concerns while visiting local parks. When residents call, they will be connected to an operator who records their issues and forwards the information to Park Rangers for follow-up. According to Cynthia Aguilar, the department's director, this hotline is a critical tool for ensuring parks remain safe and enjoyable for the community. The service aims to provide a direct line of communication, allowing for quicker responses to incidents that may arise within park boundaries.

Residents are encouraged to leave their contact information for further communication, although immediate emergencies should be reported to 911. This initiative is a testament to the city's commitment to maintaining and improving public spaces for all community members.
