Minimum parking mandates prohibition provision
SF 2738 prohibits Minnesota local governments (cities, counties) from requiring minimum parking spaces for new residential, commercial, or industrial developments. The bill removes current rules that force developers to provide a specific number of off-street parking spots, except for required ADA disability parking spaces. Local governments can still recommend parking numbers or follow ADA requirements but cannot mandate minimums. This directly affects developers building new properties and local zoning officials who currently enforce parking rules. The bill aims to give developers more flexibility in property design without changing existing accessibility standards.
