It would give credit for all money placed in meter. It took .60 without giving me minutes.
Meter A01 accepts some change without adding appropriate time to the meter. Normally I wouldn't care, but it ate a quarter of the funds entered shorting me 15 minutes which in turn landed me a parking ticket, so now I'm paying $20 for 10 minutes of time. Btw, you are apparently stealing Google Maps functionality (see screen capture showing "developer mode")
There has been a large truck parked in front of Malibu Grill for over a month. This truck is taking a prime parking spot for business on N Walnut and is a landscaping/mole removal truck/pest control. We are small business owners on this side of Walnut and have had several clients ask if our building is having a problem with pests. Can this truck be relocated if whatever business they had on North Walnut is complete? Thanks

1. Parking meter is comparable to every other parking meter in town. 2. Meter is clearly configured and marked to accept coins: coin slot, label stating “COINS” with an arrow plus a notice “INSERT VALID COINS ONLY” 3. Despite the clear labeling and configuration of the meter to accept coins, alternating digital display actually reveals “CARDS ONLY” 4. Someone using the meter puts money in, only to get nothing for it, and THEN discover that despite the labeling, this particular meter (unlike hundred of others like it all over town) DOES NOT ACCEPT COINS. 5. Not accepting cash is an equity issue. Not everyone carries a credit card around. 6. There is no reason to make this so utterly confusing. This problem of misleading labels on the meter about accepting coins but not actually delivering paid time to park seems to be either a scam, incompetence, or laziness.
