An Act relative to municipal parking

This bill directs the Executive Office of Housing and Economic Development and the Department of Revenue to produce a report on how state agencies can increase parking availability in urban business districts. The report, due by November 30, 2024, will examine potential strategies such as tax incentives, grants, and special tax statuses for private lot owners who provide public access. The legislation affects state agencies responsible for housing, economic development, and revenue, as well as private parking lot owners in city centers. It does not mandate any specific actions but requires these agencies to analyze and present options for improving parking access.
