If they can do it, we can do it here, too, and I think parking information is a great suggestion. I haven’t heard how expensive it is, but since it’s so common elsewhere it must not be prohibitively so.
Recently visited the town of San Gimignano, Italy, population 7,105. Here is the board displaying the results of their 21st century parking assistance technology:
The view from the back of the parking display board shows that the town's featured construction technology is not 21st century
Although the resident population (and tax base) might be small, the visitor population on a peak day would be big, thus incentivizing the parking assistance technology.
