Whenever a vehicle is parked in an individual parking space where a parking meter has been installed, the person parking such vehicle shall deposit a five cent (5¢) coin or coins, or a ten cent (10¢) coin or coins, or a combination thereof of United States money, in the parking meter, if the meter displays a signal showing that legal parking is only permitted on such deposit.
Parking in an individual parking space shall be permitted for thirty minutes for the deposit of one five cent (5¢) coin, and one hour for the deposit of two five cent (5¢) coins or one ten cent (10¢) coin, and for meters with longer periods of time than two hours, any combination of five cent (5¢) and ten cent (10¢) coins as are necessary to pay for the time desired at the rate of thirty minutes for five cents (5¢).
Notice to the public shall be given by appropriate signs setting forth the length of time for which parking is permitted and the conditions thereof. These may be upon the parking meter stand or in the immediate vicinity.
Any vehicle which remains in an individual parking space after the prescribed time for parking, is illegally parked, but in no event shall it be considered illegal parking if the meter display signal shows that a proper deposit has been made for such parking.
