Patrol round
A walk or drive through a lot, checking the vehicles in it.
A patrol round is a single pass through a parking area in which each vehicle is checked against the permit register and anything unrecognised is recorded.
The value of a round is as much in what it finds that is not a violation as in what it cites: the same unknown plate appearing in three rounds over a fortnight is the pattern that explains a shortage nobody could account for. A round that only records citations throws that away.
