Well it was supposed to start today, but as I went to G-Untung pharmacy this morning the place was still as chaotic as ever, and I saw no one collecting any parking moneys !

It most definitely did start today, I've heard Thais complaining about being charged double the advertised fee.

Went again to G-Untung pharmacy this morning around 11am. My husband parked in a proper allocated space, waited a good 20 minutes whilst I got the medicine, nobody came to ask for parking fee. No attendent in site.

The Hua Hin Municipal Council has initiated a pilot program to charge for parking on the streets surrounding Chatchai Market to improve parking availability for visitors.

The fees are in effect from 08:30 AM to 03:30 PM daily.

Here's a breakdown of the different parking fees.

I was there yesterday about 14.45. I saw that they had marked out some spaces, well, about 3 foots worth, parked up, went to the chemist, went to 7/11, went back to the car, drove away again. Didn't see any signs about parking, didn't see anyone collecting money, it just seemed business as normal.

Yes happened to me a couple of times too and once had to pay 10 baht to the very pleasant warden. I suppose it just depends where he is at the time if there is only one.
