Paul, a parking meter enforcing officer for Cambridge, informed me of the logistics of meter maintenance and enforcement.

Much of the history of parking meters is detailed on this site.

I found out about the man who stole 75 parking meters from Paul, the meter enforcing officer who I interviewed. The incident was also covered in this online news story.

Other information was obtained via direct observation and user interviews.
