Learn more about how you can become a housing champion by helping revamp local parking mandates

Parking Planning Best Practices

Excessive parking requirements are a major constraint to building desperately needed new housing. These mandates increase the cost of construction, reduce the space available for more homes or other amenities, and generate more driving and pollution. Thankfully, the state’s housing element process presents an opportunity to reconsider these harmful parking mandates.

To take advantage of this incredible opportunity, Transform published Parking Revolution: Housing Solution. The guide shows how concerned residents, community advocates, and housing leaders can topple this major barrier to building more homes more affordably.
