Key things to know

• Consistency matters most. Every waiver you grant becomes the standard for the next call.

• Contested violations belong in the dispute process, not in the heat of a phone call. Every waiver should go through the formal dispute approval in the ParkingPass portal.

• If a resident's behavior crosses into harassment or threats, end the call and route it to property leadership right away.
