Parking

Thursday's unanimous vote means violators will be ticketed and fined. Fees could range from $50 to $300.

Last year, the Austin City Council voted to get rid of parking minimums, which required builders to provide a certain amount of parking.

For at least half a century, the city has required builders to provide a minimum number of off-street parking spaces. Developers say without the mandates they will likely continue to build some parking.

The city has long required residential and commercial builders to include parking in their developments. On Thursday, elected officials voted to throw out these rules.

Citing public safety concerns, Austin City Council moved last week to eliminate required parking spaces at cocktail lounges. Advocates applauded the city's efforts to get folks to leave their cars at home and to ease the burden on small businesses.
