Parking requirements totally killed the vibe at a brewery by me. During COVID they were relaxed so that there was more outside seating, and then the permit was revoked. Now there's 16 more parking spots and three total outside tables. Totally sucks.

Wtf kind of regulations are those?

I think in their case it may have been an ADA requirement, because two of the outside spaces were handicapped spaces. But overall the application of the regulation or the intersection of it with city codes has an awful net result. Just outside of the parking lot is another parking lot for the connected strip mall that has more than enough spaces for anyone to park there even when people are going in and out of the adjacent office buildings and warehouses...but yet they had to lose a spacious, outdoor area with probably 10 or 20 separate picnic tables and restore the parking anyway.
