Manages city's off-street parking facilities
Overview
The Birmingham Parking Authority operates off-street parking facilities in Birmingham, running 10 garages and 2 surface lots to serve the Central Business District. Its work is to provide safe, convenient, and affordable parking by managing parking facilities funded entirely by parking revenues; any funds not needed for operations are returned to the City of Birmingham. The Authority is a self-sustaining, city-backed agency run by parking industry professionals. Its main difference from many competitors is that it is a municipal entity created by state legislation to manage downtown parking and reinvests surplus revenue back into the city. The goal is to support the growth of Birmingham’s CBD by offering reliable parking options that meet the needs of visitors and businesses.

Simplify's Take
What believers are saying
- BPA raised rates on July 1, 2026 after fifteen years, boosting repair funding.
- Revenue will fund deck upgrades, technology, and customer service improvements.
- Avondale's four-port charger and monthly parking options deepen BPA's neighborhood relevance.
What critics are saying
- July 1, 2026 rate hikes could anger downtown drivers and merchants.
- BPA has only one EV charging site; rivals can market broader charging networks.
- If deck repairs lag, aging facilities and pricing backlash will erode utilization.
What makes Birmingham Parking Authority unique
- BPA controls Birmingham's off-street public parking system, not just single garages.
- André Davis has led BPA since March 2022, bringing parking and transportation experience.
- The Avondale Village EV charger created BPA's first city parking-facility charging option.
