Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:
1. That Chapter 38 of the Acts of Assembly of 1950, approved February
22, 1950, which was incorporated by reference in the Code of Virginia by
§ 46.1-253, be amended and reenacted as follows:

_* § 1. The governing body of any county having a density of popu-
lation in excess of two thousand per square mile may by ordinance provide
for the regulation of parking on State highways, streets and public roads
within its limits designated in such ordinance, including the installation and
maintenance of parking meters and requiring the deposit therein of coins
of denominations to be prescribed in such ordinance, and the determination
of the times during which vehicles may be parked. Such ordinance may
authorize the county manager, chief of police or other designated officer
of the county to classify vehicles with reference to parking and to designate
the time, place and manner such vehicles may be allowed to park on such
designated highways, streets and roads. Such ordinance may further au-
thorize such officer to designate the specific portions or areas of such high-
ways, streets and roads upon which parking meters shall be installed and
maintained. Such ordinance may also prescribe penalties for failure to
comply with the regulations established thereunder; provided, however,
that parking shall not be regulated under the provisions of this act on any
highways constructed and maintained by the State Highway Commission
except in accordance with a plan for the regulation of parking thereon
approved by the State Highway Commission.
