Subject: Sierra Club California's Support For Improved Parking Policies
Comment:
For decades, the Sierra Club has favored elimination of subsidies
for parking, as shown in
http://sierraclub.org/policy/conservation/trans.aspx

On July 24, 2010 Sierra Club California passed the following
resolution regarding parking:

More Equitable and Eco-Friendly Car Parking Policy

Proposed Resolution for CNRCC July 24, 2010, Prepared June 16,
2010 by Energy-Climate Committee
 
Contact: Mike Bullock, CNRCC Energy-Climate Committee:
760-754-8025, mike_bullock@earthlink.net.

RESOLUTION: Sierra Club California supports equitable changes in
parking policies to reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMT) and
greenhouse gas emissions.  Some methods include eliminating or
reducing minimum parking requirements (in off-street parking
ordinances and any land use actions), unbundling car parking costs,
operating shared parking, and congestion pricing. Policies must
protect the privacy of drivers, consider disabled and low-income
drivers, and protect the public’s right to access public lands and,
within the coastal zone, visitor serving facilities.
