közterületfelügyel

Közterületfelügyelő is a Hungarian term that translates to public space supervisor or public space enforcement officer. These individuals are responsible for maintaining order and enforcing regulations within public areas in Hungary. Their duties typically include monitoring public spaces, ensuring compliance with local ordinances, and addressing minor public order disturbances.

Közterületfelügyelők are employed by local municipalities and operate under the authority granted to them by these local governments. Their primary role is to prevent and address issues such as littering, illegal parking, unauthorized vending, and public nuisance. They often work in visible uniforms and can issue fines or warnings for violations.

The specific powers and responsibilities of a közterületfelügyelő can vary depending on the local regulations of the municipality they serve. They are not law enforcement officers in the same sense as police officers, and their enforcement powers are generally limited to civil infractions and local administrative offenses. They often cooperate with the police, referring more serious matters to them. The aim of their work is to improve the quality of public spaces and enhance the safety and well-being of citizens.
