Major growth areas include: (1) comprehensive parking management system added in 2010 with three distinct parking regimes (ticket, paid staff, permit), permit application processes, and appeal committees; (2) security enhancements in 2015 adding weapons prohibitions (including recently sharpened edge articles in 2024/2025) and removal powers for disorderly persons; (3) smoking bans added in 2010; (4) detailed fee structures and inflation-adjusted penalties.

You'll need to pay fees (up to $200 plus storage) to get your car back.\n\n**Enforcement (Parts V & VI):**\n- Breaking these rules is an offence, punishable by fines up to $200 (or lower \"modified penalties\" if you pay promptly).\n- Authorised officers can issue infringement notices (on-the-spot fines) for many offences.\n- If you don't pay the modified penalty, you can be taken to court.\n- The \"responsible person\" for a vehicle (usually the registered owner) is liable for parking offences unless they provide details of who was actually driving.\n\n**Why it matters:** These rules keep a busy hospital campus safe, clean, and functional—ensuring emergency vehicles can move freely, patients aren't exposed to smoke or hazards, and parking is managed fairly for staff and visitors."},"flash_summary_failed":{"failed":true,"reason":"A positive credit balance is required for all requests, including BYOK, so fallback providers remain available.
