The "Critical Parking" program is outdated, anti-urban, and unreasonable.
At the very places that parking is most "critical" (in demand) it is denied to almost everyone. It is born out of the same shortsightedness that created rigid zoning, cul-de-sacs (and closed off intersections) and the Shoreline Overlay District, by people who should know better but want to have their urbanity and eat it too. I propose the creation of a city or metro-wide parking authority to look comprehensively at parking, transit, and the built environment. Mike Jensvold Ward 10 REMINDERS: 1.
