It's now operational...and free, at least for the time being. It has a credit card reader, but never asks for payment. There's still no signage, and is therefore ICEd a bit. I had to ask the landscapers to move their truck this morning before I could use it. One of the guys who works in the kitchen of the Italian restaurant seems to consider it his private parking space, so if you find it ICEd in the evening, the culprit is probably in there. The cord will stretch to the farther non-handicapped spot, but it's tighter than I'd like.

It's labeled as a "PEP Station" and looks like a simple unit, with a 7" touchscreen and a magstripe reader. Unfortunately, it seemed to be unpowered. It didn't respond to touches, or charge when I plugged in. It's hidden behind an Italian restaurant, in an area most customers would never see it, which makes me wonder whether it's intended for employees.
