parking enforcement
Meter violation patrol
Parking enforcement is the monitoring and regulation of parked vehicles to ensure compliance with local laws—checking meters, issuing tickets, towing illegally parked cars.
The term often refers to the personnel or department responsible: Parking enforcement came by and ticketed everyone on the block.
A parking enforcement officer is sometimes called a meter maid, though that term sounds dated and gendered.
