X Monthly Parking is Being Recruite

Tim says:

It’s clear that someone left off the “d” at the end of the last word. However, that’s not the only problem with this sign.

“Monthly parking” is not being recruited. People who will USE the parking lot are being recruited! They need cars, not parking spaces!

While you could say “Now recruiting people to rent our monthly parking spots”, it would be more natural English to say:

O Monthly Parking Spaces Now Available
