First "meter maid" in PG, 1975
Donna Griggs is on the job on October 1, 1975 as Pacific Grove's first "meter maid." Her employment last month made possible by the realease of a sworn officer for other duties. The brown slacks are part of the uniform, but the coat is her own. A hat is on order, as is a new motor scooter. There are no parking meters in Pacific Grove, but enforcement is needed of time limits downtown and in several other areas. (Robert Fish/Monterey County Herald)
