Are Parking Minimums A Thing of The Past? Planning, Policy, and Technology Solutions to Right-size Parking Requirements
Chrissy Mancini Nichols, Jonathan Wicks, CAPP, Walker Consultants; Matthew Eierman, City of Sacramento, Calif.

Is your city considering reducing or eliminating minimum parking requirements? Have developers asked for the parking reductions you need to ensure demand is accommodated? While mobility trends are causing cities to rethink the need for parking minimums, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. You’ll leave this session with a toolbox of planning, policy, and technology strategies for right-sizing parking to meet the distinctive needs of your community.
  • Learn to lead a discussion with stakeholders on how mobility trends and consumer preferences may reduce the need for minimum parking requirements, tradeoffs to consider, and alternatives to providing access.
  • Identify the data and decision points to consider before reducing or eliminating parking minimums citywide, in districts, or for specific projects.
  • Create the planning, policy, and technology strategies to ensure that parking requirements are right-sized for their city, ensure the parking supply will be able to satisfy demand and improve access.


Competing for the Curb: Can On-street Parking Management Survive?
Peer Ghent, PE, City of Los Angeles DOT

Competition for curb space requires new approaches to on-street parking management. !   In recent years, the planners find ourselves competing with TNCs, bicycles, delivery trucks, parklets, scooters, and pop-ups. Many planners view “storing cars on the street” as the lowest priority for the curb space. In this presentation, I will sort out the competitive uses for the curb and discuss how we can develop policies to manage the curb effectively. Bring your thinking cap!
  • Define competition for curb space.
  • Develop criteria to evaluate alternative uses of the curb.
  • Develop strategies for resolving conflicting priorities for the curb.


Ditching Gates? Why These Operations Made the Decision
Brent Paxton, Premium Parking Services; Melissa Yates, CAPP, City of Boulder, Colo.; Brian Shaw, CAPP, Stanford University; Joseph Snowden, MSHRM, City of Mobile, Ala., Mobile Alabama Cruise Terminal

We are living every day in an increasingly mobile-dominated world. How does the trend for the virtualization of parking credentials intersect with a gated parking facility when consumers expect a frictionless experience? Do gates truly improve an operation financially and offer revenue control? Hear from this panel of experts who questioned the traditional gated mindset. Learn what factors were considered when they made the decision to ditch gates, and go gateless.
  • Understand the advantages gateless operations provide a location.
  • Identify qualifying traits within the parking situation that make gateless operations successful.
  • Analyze existing tools in the marketplace that are used to implement a gateless parking approach.
