  1. escholarship.org/uc/item/9f88x “parking construction costs have risen substantially faster than inflation since 2012 and that required parking can account for a large share of total project costs—adding tens of thousands of dollars per housing unit and, in some cases, increasing total construction costs by more than 50%” #ParkingMandates #housing #zoning #WarOnCars #Shoupista #ParkingReform #inflation #shortage

  2. There is a helpful roundup here of the big housing bills being considered this year in expensive Virginia. I am optimistic that many of these will finally pass this year after many years of debate and indecision. reddit.com/r/Virginia/s/Dednet #housing #Virginia #VALeg #YIGBY #YIMBY #inflation #shortage #homelessness #displacement #ParkingReform

  3. besi.berkeley.edu/publication/ “this process started to break down in the 1970s, as many localities increased barriers to housing development through zoning, parking requirements, onerous permitting processes, environmental regulations, historical preservation, and other mechanisms” #housing #zoning #inflation #shortage #USPolitics #ParkingReform

  4. We OPPOSE the surface parking lot proposal at 3116 Park Ave in the Peterboro-Charlotte Historic District. As @detroitparking, we advocate for people-first downtowns.

    Surface lots degrade historic character, compromise pedestrian safety and waste land that could be housing or community amenities.

    We urge the Commission to DENY this proposal and prioritize solutions that enhance our neighborhoods' historic fabric and vitality.

    Parking minimums are outdated for dense, 381-dwelling units.

    Even the city's reduced minimum of 420 spaces, down from 484 (1. 27sp/unit) for West Peak will lead to more congestion, pollution, and lower affordability.

    This condo is next to a bus route, bike lane, is walkable distance to several supermarkets, and has indoor bike storage.

  11. Great op-ed today in @bridgedet313 on proposed zoning changes that will incrementally cut back on some parking mandates from our friends at Strong Towns Detroit. #urbanism #parkingreform #parking #Detroit #cities #housing #affordability #strongtowns

  12. chicagocityscape.com/blog/city “more housing can get permitted faster, or permitted in the first place, because parking will no longer be a “binding constraint” for new and rehabbed residential uses in transit-served area” #Chicago #housing #transit #ParkingReform #zoning

  13. “Parking is a government-mandated tax on new housing and small businesses that we want, and the result that we get from it is more pavement, more air pollution, more tire dust, 6PPDQ pollution, and we know that it drives more traffic” theurbanist.org/2025/06/06/bre #Bremerton #ParkingReform #housing #CleanAir

  14. cbsnews.com/texas/news/dallas- “This is barely incremental compared to what other cities are doing. But at least it's taking us in the right direction from the 1960s, where the parking code still rules in most of our city." #Dallas #ParkingReform #housing #walkability

  15. These climate activists are calling for parking reform in Dallas

    While critics worry it could increase the number of cars parked on the street and make parking more difficult to find, proponents say the update to the decades-old parking ordinance would cut down on unused space and help the city grow economically.
