National Parking Association

NPA has released four new position papers to help members navigate key regulatory issues impacting parking and mobility. These complimentary member resources cover: 🔘 Parking minimums 🔘 Allowable uses of DPPA 🔘 Compliance standards 🔘 ALPR Public policy decisions directly affect how parking operators, owners, municipalities, and mobility partners plan, operate, and serve their communities. These toolkits are designed to help NPA members advocate for fair business policies, support informed decision-making, and reinforce parking’s role as essential transportation infrastructure.

Parking is changing across every part of the industry — from growth and investment to construction costs, technology, taxes, and expansion planning. Making sense of that change takes more than data. It takes conversation. NPA members come together to share perspective, compare challenges, and understand the decisions shaping what comes next. That connection helps the industry move forward with more clarity.
