I really enjoy the ClimateTown youtube channel. I had never considered that parking laws could be behind why my city looks like such a dystopian concrete jungle.
They also provide some instructions for how to contact your local council reps to voice your concerns - https://www.climatechangemakers.org/playbook-parking-mandates/#action
I don’t think I’m as active in politics as I should be but we all have to start somewhere. I’m sharing here and hope some of you also try reaching out to your local reps. You can even complain about more than just parking laws!
There a lot of bad zoning laws in the usa, check your local laws to see how bad it is where you live
Houstons terrible, we have “no zoning” laws, but a mishmash of rules where we get the worst of both worlds.
