Imagine a city where nearly half of the land is covered in concrete, used for nothing more than parking cars. This is the reality in Arlington, Texas, where parking lots and garages occupy 42 percent of the city's land area. Dallas is not far behind, with a quarter of its downtown core dedicated to parking. Parking policy is the secret killer of our planet and our way of life. Parking minimums contribute to climate change, as developers must build a certain number of parking spaces for every new building.
