Rhode Island https://actionnetwork.org/groups/neighbors-welcome-rhode-island https://can2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/letters/photos/000/443/394/normal/open-uri20260410-829068-1s221s7 House Bill 8005 (Giraldo, Voas, Cruz, Morales) limits the number of parking spaces that can be required for multifamily apartments constructed near mobility hubs and high-frequency transit stops identified by Rhode Island’s Transit Master Plan. Parking is expensive to construct (between $5,000 and $50,000 per space), directly impacting home rental and sale prices. H8005 is a first step towards ensuring that builders are not mandated to include more parking than necessary at the expense of cost-strapped residents. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/bill-s2628-cap-parking-mandates
