Parking meters installed in the parking lots shall be placed immediately adjacent to the individual parking spaces that are to be marked off and maintained on the lots. For each parking meter, there shall be a clear indication, through the use of directional arrows or an identification number, to show which individual parking space it serves. Each parking meter shall indicate, by a proper legend, the parking rate and the maximum parking time established by Section 484.01. When the parking space is occupied and the parking meter shall indicate, on and by its dial and pointer, the duration of legal parking and, upon the expiration of that period, shall indicate illegal parking or overparking.
