Support Parking Flexibility to Lower Housing Costs

N4MN-parking-action-blog-featured-image

On Tuesday, June 10, the House State and Local Government Committee met to advance H369, which will put flexibility back in the hands of homeowners, property owners, and builders. The bill now heads through the Rules Committee before it advances to the House Floor. Today, parking rules are inflexible, and mean we’re not considering what is actually needed when we build homes, shops, or offices. Property owners are not allowed to decide how many spaces to build, nor are they allowed to consider whether the home is right next to a bus stop or who will live in the homes once they’re built. It’s time to change that, and states across the country are passing legislation to allow flexibility in parking rules. It’s time for North Carolina to join them!

H369 now needs a floor vote by the House of Representatives and your Representative needs to hear from you about why you support H369, so take just one minute today to send them a quick note.
