Cities dropping parking minimums

Read a CityLab piece this morning about 12 U.S. cities dropping parking minimums and the ripple effects on rents and small storefronts — who else has seen this? Curious what you’d pair it with: any good counterpoints or local stories I should read next?

After the ‘12 cities’ piece, pair with Shoup’s “High Cost of Free Parking” (https://shoup.bol.ucla.edu/) — watch for spillover parking — any local data?

Buffalo case study shows lower costs and more infill: https://www.sightline.org/2018/01/04/buffalos-parking-revolution/. Small caveat: curb loading/ADA gets tight — any @localbiz owners seeing that?
