>>1900846>I assume American downtowns will get denser and more pedestrian-friendly. I don't think it'll change the 'burbs much, but some cities that were highly suburban and car-oriented (like San Jose) will change significantly.Every development still has to be approved by the city, so "no parking minimums" just means no blanket code and every development will be treated differently. Bastrop, Texas (small town/growing bedroom community of Texas) "officially" got rid of parking minimums but the fine print still indicates de facto parking minimums. For example, if you look at the requirements for RV park/lodging facilities as shown below...
https://www.co.bastrop.tx.us/upload/page/0093/docs/2022.09.12%20Court%20Appd%20Lodging-RV%20Park%20Requirements.pdf...you'll see text like this:
>Each Lodging Development Space shall afford parking and maneuvering space sufficient so that the parking, loading, and the like, of vehicles shall not necessitate the use of any public right-of-way or privately owned property which may abut the Development or the unreasonable use of any interior road.Realistically, this is more along the lines of "let's take a closer look at the properties instead of treating them all equally" rather than the "get fucked cagie this is cycle town" fantasy.
