The federal notice titled “DHS-ICE-SurgeParking” says U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is conducting market research for surface or structured parking “in the vicinity of existing or planned ICE facilities.”

The parking search is part of a broader inquiry into spaces near ICE facilities in 14 U.S. cities. Federal officials have not said whether the request reflects an increase in local enforcement activity.
