Unbundle Parking from Unit Cost
Description
- Selling or leasing parking spaces separately from the sale of each residential unit can lead to lower rates of vehicle ownership and be used as a selling feature in an area well-served area by transit and/or cycling infrastructure.
- Unbundling parking supports a “shared economy” where vehicles are shared by multiple users such as a carshare service.
