This month, GCAT’s Chris Greyson-Gaito is tackling a hot topic: Zoning Parking Minimums and how they shape affordability, transit, and sustainability in Guelph! 🚗💰
Did you know that mandatory parking minimums can actually make housing less affordable and limit space for things like patios, green spaces, and better public transit? Cities that remove parking minimums create more flexibility—allowing developers to design smarter, more sustainable spaces. 🚶♂️🚲
Think about it: ❓ Does every new downtown apartment really need a parking space, especially near transit hubs? ❓ Could that spot be better used for housing, community space, or even a patio for your favorite café? ❓ How does reducing parking requirements help drive investment in transit and active transportation?
This thought-provoking discussion is sure to spark some great debate—and we’ve got some special guests! 🎤 Our MPP Mike Schreiner and Mayor Cam Guthrie have accepted invites and will be in attendance!
🍻 Grab a drink, bring your questions, and join the conversation on how rethinking parking can build a better Guelph!
