If the city actually enforces by-laws for on-street parking, then owning more cars than you have space to store in your building (or through renting parking nearby) becomes untenable. I don't think this is an actual urban problem.
The bigger problem is that "established neighbourhoods" feel that free and abundant on-street parking is non-negotiable, and any short-term parking use that can be attributed to new development becomes an argument against all new development. One approach for this is to establish pay on-street parking but with special permits provided to existing residents.
