Daniel Baldwin Hess – författare

In The Shoup Doctrine: Essays Celebrating Donald Shoup and Parking Reforms, edited by Daniel Baldwin Hess, 37 city planners, economists, journalists, and parking professionals analyze three major parking reforms proposed by Donald Shoup, a Distinguished Research Professor of Urban Planning at UCLA. First, remove off-street parking requirements; second, use market prices to manage on-street parking; third, spend the parking meter revenue to fund added public services on metered blocks. These parking reforms can align individual incentives with collective objectives and produce enormous benefits at low or no cost. All these benefits will result from subsidizing people, not parking. Shifting the cost of parking to the parkers will make cities more expensive for cars and more livable for people.

Shoup has spent his career encouraging everyone to rethink relationships between parking and the built environment, traffic congestion, energy consumption, and local economic development. This book celebrates Shoup’s decades-long contributions to research, practice, and education and demonstrates how parking reform can support affordable housing development, lessen air pollution, and reduce automobile dependency.

This book will be of interest to urban planners, developers, elected officials, students, and citizen advocates who are passionate about reducing automobile dependency and creating more sustainable and vital cities.
