Should this be considered fraud?

Asked by rockfan (14627points) January 16th, 2023 from iPhone

In Lexington, Kentucky, street parking during the weekend has always been free, all day long. Recently, they’ve changed free weekday parking to after 9 pm, instead of the previous 5pm. But this change wasn’t widely publicized, and they still keep the meters on, on weekends. So some people are still paying the meters even though it’s free. Because some folks are now assuming that the change includes payed parking on the weekends. They always used to shut the meters off when we didn’t need to pay for parking. How is this legal? Shouldn’t this be considered as fraud?
