traffic warden
Ticket-issuing official
A traffic warden is a municipal officer who monitors parking and issues tickets for violations.
The role is primarily British; Americans would say parking enforcement officer or meter maid.
Traffic wardens patrol streets, check meters, and cite illegally parked vehicles: I came back to find a traffic warden writing me a ticket.
