    Part of the issue is that of they didn’t have that requirement, none would be built

    Good. Ban car parking.

    putting extra pressure on street parking and public parking facilities

    Don’t build those either. Put the money that would have been spent on parking spaces into towtrucks.

      As a non car owner, I’d love to agree. Banning car spots and cars is not yet feasible for most people. So, not having those spots available would make those kind of developments harmful for the rest of the community, further marginalizing them.

      What is more likely to work is to make the regulation more flexible. So community cars count as 2 or 3 private cars. Then the complex needs less spaces.

        Necessity is the mother of invention. “Destroy it and they will leave.”

        We could be like Japan where in order to own a car, you have to prove you have somewhere private to park it instead of just putting it on the street.
