On April 16, 2024, the Board of Supervisors held a public hearing and approved amendments to Title 22 to modify current requirements on parking for new multifamily housing developments in the County’s unincorporated communities. The proposed modifications to parking take into account changing community needs for personal vehicle parking, enable more plentiful, affordable housing options in unincorporated areas countywide, and encourage the use of a wide range of transportation choices. Parking will be eliminated for development in public transit areas per state law. Outside of public transit areas, parking will be reduced for small housing developments of ten or fewer dwelling units, and parking may be reduced for large housing developments with the provision of Transportation Demand Management (TDM) measures that are to be built into the housing development. Off-site parking and shared parking programs will be streamlined and minor modifications are proposed for parking stall dimensions.
