Initial Coins Hit New Park - Meters Monday

Red signal flags in some 200 brand new Park-O-Meters will begin curbing erst-while traffic violators on the local scene Monday morning at 8 o'clock, following the installation of meterheads today.

Lining both sides of main arteries within a quarter-mile radius of the Kiosk, the meters will pay off at the rate of 12 minutes per penny, or a whole hour for a nickel. When the flag pops up in the glass meterhead at the end of an hour, the parker must either move to another meter or pay a $1 fine, with fines for subsequent offences depending upon what humor the judge is in.
