Parking tix for street sweeping--date change

Just in case you park right under a Somerville street sweeping sign that says the season ends on Dec 1st, please be advised that you will still be slapped with a $50 ticket.   I left my car on the street last night (4th) directly next to a sign with a 12/1 date on it and got a ticket.  When I called parking, they said, "Oh yeah, this year it's December 31st, not the 1st."  Umm, okay, how about changing signs to reflect that??
Just a heads up so you don't go through the same aggravation.......

Um, yeah. If the officially-correct date wasn't posted, then you should not have to pay the ticket. It sucks that it's a pain in the ass to contest it, but imho the parking officials should not get away with this sort of thing, so I hope you will contest it.
