Many cities turn off meters long before the demand ebbs, mostly for political reasons. This is a welcome move in the right direction.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s been lots of talk in recent years about converting parking garages for other uses, but imagining second acts for underground lots is pretty tough. In Paris, though, some enterprising fellows have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.euractiv.com\/section\/agriculture-food\/news\/in-paris-organic-farming-takes-over-fallow-parking-lots\/\">started growing mushrooms in the dark dankness<\/a> of an empty garage.<\/p>\n<p>Portland, Oregon <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theparkingminute.com\/portland-takes-one-more-step-toward-zero-parking-requirements\/\">joined a handful of cities with a path to zero parking requirements \u2014 citywide<\/a>, for multi-family housing projects. Any development that participates in inclusionary affordable housing programs is exempted from any parking minimums. In the next few months the city is likely to make further reforms.<\/p>\n<p>Parking cash-out is an extremely logical reform and it\u2019s surprising we don\u2019t see it implemented in more cities.
