Bill > H369

This bill aims to reform parking lot regulations and stormwater control requirements for local governments. Specifically, it restricts local governments from setting minimum numbers of off-street parking spaces per development or structure, with exceptions for historic districts, landmarks, and coastal areas, and also limits the maximum size of individual parking spaces unless designated for specific uses like handicap parking. Additionally, the bill modifies how local governments can require stormwater control measures for redeveloped properties, generally preventing them from imposing new or increased controls on existing built-upon areas or redevelopment that doesn't increase the built-upon area, while allowing for incentives for exceeding required stormwater controls. The bill also includes a small appropriation to educate property owners about adjusting parking lot sizes for better alignment with usage and cost savings.
