People using transit facilities generally have to walk to where they are going; we shouldn't needlessly extend the distance they have to walk by allowing oversized parking lots. This is a good amendment.

There's limited space near transit in this city, we shouldn't let people waste it with unnecessary private parking spaces. If you want to put two cars on your property, there's plenty of places to do that away from our transit facilities.

If I understand this correctly, it would limit the maximum number of off-street parking spaces in the specified areas to the minimum currently required in the IDO. For example, if you have a two-bedroom home near an ART stop, you would be limited to 1 parking space. A four-bedroom duplex would be limited to 2 spaces. This might make sense in Manhattan, but I don't think Albuquerque is quite ready to say goodbye to the concept of the two-car family. (Which, among other things, has been a major factor in democratizing access to the work place over the last century, particularly for women.) Did I misunderstand something here?
