Relating to the authority of a municipality to require a minimum amount of parking spaces for certain commercial buildings.
HB 3275 prohibits Texas municipalities from requiring minimum parking spaces for commercial buildings, effective September 1, 2025. It bars cities from enforcing such parking mandates through ordinances or regulations, except for accessible parking designated for people with disabilities under state or federal law. The bill directly affects municipalities (cities) and commercial developers constructing new buildings after the effective date. It creates a statewide standard, overriding local parking requirements for most commercial developments.
