Veteran Reserved Parking Sign Initiative

Show your appreciation to those who have served in the armed forces. Reserve a parking spot – or more – in your parking lot, for veterans. The Veteran Reserved Parking Initiative can be your way of saying “Thank You for Your Service” to our military service members, past and present. It is a visual way of showing appreciation for veterans who live, work, shop, and play in Howard County. 

Thanks to AIDA Bistro, Leidos, and The Mall in Columbia, for signing on early to recognize these heroes.
