WaPo sees #ParkingMinimums leading to:
-millions of parking spaces we don’t need. Each one costs us.
-addiction to free parking, a bad habit that harms health, businesses and cities. The main beneficiaries are cars, not people
-minimum parking requirements raise housing costs, subsidize car ownership and congestion, increase homelessness, deter transit and pollute the air

Parking spots cost $5,000 to $80,000 to build. Everyone pays, even the ones who don't drive.
