"We have purposely beert lenient," Mr. Bolton said, "to give the Milford residents sufficient time to become acquainted with our new 'Monterrey' parking system. We feel they should by now know how to drive into and out of the parking spaces, so we are instructing the marshals to issue citations to any motorist parking illegally." Parking in front of the post office will be changed to one 10 minute zone, Mr. Bolton said, and all Main Street parking with spaces will be the dividing lines extending farther into the street, and up onto the curb, enabling motorists to more easily determine whether they are parked properly.
