Illinois will effectively eliminate parking minimum requirements in ~all of Chicago and much of its suburbs thanks to the transit funding bill that passed last night.
Also contains parking reform! This is a preliminary map of Chicagoland based on the People Over Parking Act provision.
It would also apply downstate though!

And therefore BIGGEST US PRO-CLIMATE ACTION OF 2025

The Clean and Reliable Grid Affordability Act just passed the Illinois House 70/37. It’s off to the Senate now. If it passes the Senate CRGA becomes law and Illinois will double down on the clean energy transition.
