give public notice of the fixing or change (as the case may be) of the parking charge;

specify in the public notice mentioned in paragraph (a) the parking charge or changed parking charge (as the case may be) and the parking place, vehicle or time (as the case may be) to which it applies, and the date which the parking charge or the changed parking charge takes effect; and

except for season parking charges, ensure that, so long as the parking charge or changed parking charge is in effect, the parking charge or changed parking charge (as the case may be), and the following information (where applicable), are displayed on one or more traffic signs erected at every entrance to the parking place, or in a conspicuous location within the parking place so that the traffic signs may be easily seen and read:

information indicating the period of time for which parking is permitted in that parking place;

information indicating the times when a vehicle may be parked in accordance with the sign;

information indicating that parking is reserved for vehicles belonging to the class of vehicles referred to in the sign.(4) The public notice required by subsection (3)(a) must be given in all or any of the following ways:

by causing it to be published in the daily newspapers circulating in Singapore in all the official languages;

by making accessible the information mentioned in subsection (3)(b) —

in the case of any parking place maintained or operated by a statutory body except the Authority, on the statutory body’s website; and

in all other cases, on the Authority’s website; (c)by causing it to be published in such other manner as the Superintendent considers will secure adequate publicity for the parking charge fixed or changed.(5) No parking charge and no change to any parking charge has any effect until the notice relating to it is published in accordance with subsection (4)(a).(6) An instrument setting out any parking charge fixed or changed under this section does not have legislative effect.(7) In any proceedings relating to the recovery or non‑payment of any parking charge, a certificate purporting to be issued by the Superintendent certifying the amount of the parking charge due and payable by a person is prima facie evidence that the amount of parking charge so stated is due and payable by the person so named in the certificate as at the date of the certificate.(8) In this section —

a reference to a parking charge includes a reference to a season parking charge, and a surcharge which is payable if a parking charge is not paid within a specified time; and
