Or we could, you know, just not have these ridiculous requirements that are unbased in any kind of science. They were just guessed at by politicians 60 years ago, and then copied from municipality to municipality.
Why would a business invest millions of dollars into building a storefront in a situation where parking is required, and not build any parking? Why does the state, apparently in your opinion, know better what the business’s parking needs are than the business does? And if they DO go out of business because of their bad planning, what problem is that of yours and mine?
It’s a potential problem, but it’s not as great as the ACTUAL problems that we are presently dealing with. It might not be ideal to have no regulations, but it’s certainly better than the status quo, which exists due to the intense historical influence of General Motors. Ie, political corruption and regulatory capture. It’s garbage, it’s hurting us.
There is more parking sqf per American car than there is housing sqf per American citizen.

What about all the businesses that presently cannot exist because the financial overhead of parking requirements makes them nonviable?
