No parking required for small housing projects near transit
Several speakers were frustrated that the apartment project needs no parking spaces. Staff explained state law (Government Code 65863.2) bars minimum parking requirements for projects under 20 units within a half mile of transit, and the city's downtown parking district rules already exempt residential units in mixed-use buildings there.
