DONALD SHOUP
Donald Shoup wants to take away your free parking.
He doesn't even want you to have cheap, under market value parking.
Before you suburbanites want to scalp him, read the well-thought-out essays by this UCLA professor with advanced degrees from Yale.
He makes a lot of sense.
He explains that the short gains we make in the pocket book by enjoying free seas of parking at malls and big box retailers are far outstripped by the astronomical costs we pay for building and trying to sustain sprawl.
His plans to use parking to help build compact, livable neighborhoods has earned him a legion of breathless followers -- the Shoupistas.
