I am surprised to hear you describe “applying the rules even-handedly” as “bringing the hammer down on a 16-year-old.” IMO, we should all be held to the same standard.

That doesn’t sound like a misuse of 911. A parking fee dispute is a civil matter. It doesn’t allow the parking attendant to hold people against their will. Realistically, the most they are going to do is ban them from parking there in the f
