Somehow I think that the city had to be involved in this prank. What a little weasel!!

Wow, Candied Camera!!!! Haven't seen this since the early 90's!!
And actually..........you CAN go to the city to "buy a parking space" for a day or week/month in some areas.
And you can charge as much as you want for that space.
They do this in Mexifornia. A lot of restaurants do it there. They will charge you to park on the street in front of their restaurants. And no, it's not Valet parking..........thats different.
But what about the fire hydrant part?
