Donald Shoup is a Professor of Urban Planning at UCLA and author of The High Cost of Free Parking. One thousand other city planners have started a Facebook group in his honor called the Shoupistas. Now Los Angeles has launched a pilot program for on-street parking based on his concept of 'variable rate meters." It's already well under way in San Francisco.
