\"no_parking_400\"<\/p>\n

By Jill Chapin<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

April 13, 2013<\/p>\n

For those of you suffering severe traffic problems where you live, you might want to know what is evolving in the southern reaches of our state, specifically, in what is sometimes referred to as the Socialist Republic of Santa Monica.<\/p>\n

There is an ordinance update drawn up by a city consultant, calling for a big reduction in the amount of parking that future developers would have to build. Their theory is that if there is less parking available, people will be compelled not to drive, choosing instead to walk or ride bikes or take public transit. And it seems that our city council will likely be on board with this astonishing proposal. It makes you wonder who is more supported by the city council since this idea is a developer\u2019s dream and a citizen\u2019s nightmare.<\/p>\n

I know I\u2019m not alone in feeling outraged at this convoluted thinking that will affect us for decades. It\u2019s one thing for a consultant to propose such lunacy; for city leaders to even consider it defies common sense and basic arithmetic. How can we solve parking problems by insisting on fewer parking spaces from new development?<\/p>\n

In a city teeming with tourists and employees and shoppers and patients all vying for coveted parking, Santa Monica is of the mindset that reducing parking spaces for yet more businesses moving into ever higher and denser buildings is the way to solve our parking fiasco.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s one thing to encourage alternate modes of travel with carrots and sticks. But using a sledgehammer on an entire town does not resemble anything remotely democratic.<\/p>\n

Never mind that patients are not likely able to ride a bike or walk or take a bus to see their doctors. Never mind that it would be difficult to haul seven bags of groceries on a walk or a bike or a bus. Never mind that people in nearby towns might need their cars to go from a restaurant in Santa Monica followed by a movie somewhere else. Never mind that tourists in rental cars would prefer the ability to go places where buses might not be headed. Never mind that public transportation would not likely drop people off within a comfortable and safe distance from home late at night.<\/p>\n

But the worst aspect of this wholly illogical plan is that, once implemented, there is no chance of correcting it later. Once the buildings are erected without adequate parking, there is no subsequent subterranean digging to undo this grievous wrong.<\/p>\n

I contacted several small California coastal towns such as Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, Long Beach, and even the tiny island of Coronado. All of them are experiencing parking shortages as great as ours. None of them are considering the madness that Santa Monica is contemplating. Someone summed it up perfectly: We have enough parking problems; we don\u2019t need to create more.<\/p>\n

Giving up our cars en masse is not going to happen anytime soon. While it is admirable and necessary to start implementing strategies to reduce our dependence on them, we need to do so in a way that nudges us to be more ecologically responsible without pushing us over a cliff. One suggestion would be to first require adequate parking in new construction while simultaneously offering cash incentives for people to carpool or ride a bike or walk or take the bus. If empty spaces open up with a successful implementation of this offer, then employers could rent out the spaces to restaurants or doctors\u2019 offices or nearby shopping areas. This could become a win-win for all.<\/p>\n

Apparently, Santa Monica fears that adequate parking will cause people to flock there like bees to honey. But isn\u2019t that the point? More people visiting and working and shopping there will generate more revenue. Have they considered the flip side to this psychedelic line of reasoning – that if people knew parking was a self-inflicted, time-consuming challenge, they would go elsewhere, rather than endure the endless searching for a place to leave their car?<\/p>\n

If the powers that be get their way, be prepared to experience Santa Monica from your slowly moving car, because you and your Toyota will likely be as inseparable as bees to honey.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
