This is not unprecedented, at least in Brookline, where I was told to move my car on Beacon because the adjacent restaurant had a deal with the city to keep these spaces free for valet parking. Just pick-up and drop-off, not the actual parking.

Not sure what the city gets out of it but the business certainly benefits. One would hope that they use private parking (IE Dilboy) or out of the way spaces like behind Rite Aid.

This begs the question, why do these new businesses get waivers for their parking requirements if they later need to have valet parking? Where are all these available parking spaces that the submitted parking studies say are there? If they are too hard to find and people give up, are they really available?
