parking attendant
Vehicle placement employee
A parking attendant is someone employed to manage parked vehicles—either operating a parking lot or garage, or patrolling streets to enforce parking regulations and issue tickets.
The term covers both the person who takes your keys at a valet stand and the uniformed officer who writes citations for expired meters.
