Alfred Adams i believe there are also hidden benefits to parking regs. As the city grows in the next ten years an appreciation growth for land and space will also occur. above ground city parking also needs to be considered... also validation and subsidy for parking for work as opposed to parking to guh lime or shopping..i believe this works out to about 72 cents per hour US. but i'm not sure what impact the median income had on this decision... maybe i need to read the whole thing...
