Does it need to be on street parking though? I'd argue that most new building should just be built with a parking basement. Under ground parking can provide most, if not all of the parking required within modern cities. Developers just don't want to add them, due to cost of construction.
There are a few new apartment building going up in the city center 20 minutes from my home. Each apartment is required to provide 1.7 parking spot per apartment. It's not required to be on street, or even above ground.
- avianlyric 5y agoTo be clear, the restriction is no parking, not, no on street parking. The city wants these developments to add exactly zero parking or cars to the city. Underground or otherwise. Parked cars don’t pollute or cause traffic, the issue is when people start driving them. In my new build the developer was restricted (not required to build, a maximum allowed to build) to 0.3 spaces per apartment. That was two years ago, in one years time, a new build here will be restricted to zero spaces per apartment.
