ARTICLE VII. PARKING METERS

No person shall park a vehicle in violation of such limitation, restriction or prohibition. The Traffic Engineer shall also provide for the erection of uniform signs or the painting of curbs, giving notice thereon of the parking reservations and the limited parking permitted.
