This is great news! Parking mandates not only promote car usage, they also increase asphalt which worsens flooding and urban heat. Great work Shoreline! 🚗 #climatepolicy #cities #parking #sustainability #climatechange #RunOnClimate #parkingminimums
🎉 Shoreline, WA abolishes parking mandates city-wide!!!

Expect a new red dot to show up on our Mandates Map very soon! parkingreform.org/resources/ma...

When your city has #ParkingMinimums The parking lots are too big even on #BlackFriday #BikeBrampton

Is it ironic that the session on parking minimums is the first one I’ve encountered that is standing room only? 🤔🤷🏻‍♂️

This is the 6 floor parking structure in #beverlyhills 221N Crescent. It has maybe 500 parking spots (conservatively) and I would bet that it's never been more than 30% full. #parkingwaste #lametro #parkingminimums

Parsing through fire safety regulations and design requirements for metros in multiple jurisdictions, one realizes how much the rules shaping our environment are equally the results of implicit rule-of-thumb cost-benefit considerations, social biases of the regulators and actual science.

It's interesting. Volunteering w/ @housingnowto.bsky.social, in 2022 we helped push Toronto towards eliminating #ParkingMinimums. I have to say the anti-bike megaphone within the industry IMHO isn't as big an issue anymore. The math works in their favour to have more bikes. bsky.app/profile/hous...

#yqrcc is definitely influenced by the Highway Lobby. My city never met a policy that reinforced #CarCulture that they didn't like. I'm amazed we managed to get rid of #ParkingMinimums. My city loves #UrbanSprawl.
IMPORTANT STUDY: Who is the Highway Lobby?

“The highway lobby has been shaping transportation policy conversations for decades in its interests.”

And they spend MILLIONS buying car dependency to make sure all of us have to spend BILLIONS. #UrbanTruth

Does it also eliminate all #BikeDenver #ParkingMinimums in #Denver?
Can someone please find out for sure?

Looks like there's plenty of parking, though! #UrbanPlanning #ParkingMinimums

9/15 Parking minimums: a key factor! 🚗 Requiring parking spots per patron impacts bar prevalence & urban sprawl. Less parking = more bars? #parkingMinimums #urbanSprawl #walkableCities

F0rk it. They went whole hog, we should, too.

- Stop the GD #Zionists.
- Ban #parkingminimums and #singlefamilyzoning.
- #Universalbasicincome.
- Direct stimulus for developers building affordable condos and townhomes.

I frequently see Hartford held up as an example on municipality that has eliminated parking minimums citywide for residential development. Local folks- have you noticed a difference? Impacts positive or negative? #parkingminimums
