Whats worse is the parking was sold seperately by the developers from the units because the law said you had to have the parking but did not require it to be coupled to the units. I did not mind the parking requirment but my big beef was it should stay with the unit and the unit owner should not be limited to only putting a car in the space (which most buildings restricted it to).
So you’d rather force blind, epileptic, vertigo, mobility impaired and many other suffering people to pay more on essential living needs for utilities that they cannot ethically or legally use?
I in no way said that. I said I did not mind the requirement. Space is limited in a condo so a cheap per square foot but not climate controlled bit that you can put a storage pod on is nice but when its limited to only having a car there is the real problem.
Is that even legal in the US? Here in Germany it’s definitely illegal to use a parking spot - including your garage - for storage. It’s considered an unauthorized special use.
The reason is because parking spots and garages face different regulation than living spaces. For example, you cannot construct a shed on the edge of your property but you may build a garage there.
I wish it was illegal in the state’s to use your garage as storage.
I live in suburbia and everyone parks on the fucking street because they buy so much shit, that a regular house is not enough to store it, that they have to use their garage too.
Then I have to play frogger just to get to my house.
And most of the hem.jave huge fucking trucks to comuite in.
BITCH, you ain’t hauling shit, you are all hat and not cattle, basic-ass motherfucker.
The requirement is the problem. Why would you force someone who cannot use a parking spot to pay for one? It’s a waste of money and resources that could go into many other things, like buying a bigger condo!
Storage pods don’t make up for it, and it’s illegal for good reasons (fire and health hazard).
Instead of developing a car spot only to redevelop it for another use, just build what you want at the start.
Thing is that the cost per square foot is way cheaper and its only a few square feet. You could not buy an appreciably bigger condo with the construction costs but you get a decent sized storage footprint. I don’t see why a storage pod should have some sort of fire and health hazard that would not apply to storing in things in your condo. So I don’t see good reason for it.
There’s 0 chance these units are any cheaper because they lack parking space. This just allows developers to charge even more money from vast majority of people.

It might be illegal but its stupid to limit space like this with a condo.
And unfortunately they often do. We’re only allowed to keep bikes or motorcycles in our parking spots at my building (besides cars of course)
We can’t even do bikes and motorcycles

Yeah. And ill pay more for the world to be more accessible for them even though i dont need it.

If there was only a way to take that into consideration while building cities based on all people. Shucks best we do is just give them an extra car.
