If you want to build apartments and homes in Nashville, you are required to build parking for cars. Otherwise, the city council will kill your project. (lemmy.world)

I realize you’re getting downvoted with a lot of comparisons to Japan, and I wanted to lend a real life example.

In Chicago, it’s not uncommon for the parking space to have a separate title not tied to the people who live there, and each vehicle also has to register for a city sticker, which is basically an annual tax. Most parking is street parking, a house would have like 2 spots in the alley, but that might be for a 2 unit building.

It’s not the same as what others are suggesting, but a bit scaled back from what Nashville is requiring.
