# Parking garage revenue software that reconciles occupancy against every rate type ![A parking operations manager reviewing occupancy and gate activity on a monitor inside a multi level garage office](https://neurobird.com/parkinggarage/parkinggarage-hero.webp) *The gate counts cars. It does not count the ones that got away.* > Parking garage revenue management is the reconciliation of what a facility should have earned against what it did, across monthly permits, transient parkers, validations and event rates. The ADA sets minimum accessible space counts that scale with total spaces, 26 USC 132 governs employer provided parking as a fringe benefit, and cities such as New York license garages directly. Neurobird joins occupancy, rate type and revenue on one record across 640 spaces. - URL: https://neurobird.com/parkinggarage/ - Product: Neurobird Parking Garage Revenue Client Portal - Niche: parking garage revenue - Buyer: parking garage and lot operators - Status: in development, open for early access - Updated: 2026-08-25 ## What Neurobird Parking Garage Revenue does - Reconcile occupancy against tickets and payments rather than trusting the gate count - Hold monthly permits, transient, validation and event revenue in the same view - Track accessible space obligations against the current striping, not the original plan - Attach equipment faults to the revenue window they affected ## How it works 1. **Reconcile occupancy against tickets** What the deck held against what was sold, so an open gate shows up as a number rather than a rumour. 2. **Hold every rate type together** Monthly, transient, validation and event revenue in one view instead of 4 reports. 3. **Track the compliance counts** Accessible spaces against current striping, because the requirement scales with total spaces. ## From the source material > An access aisle can be placed on either side of the parking space (except in angled parking where it must be located on the passenger side of the parking space). Source: ADA, accessible parking spaces, https://www.ada.gov/topics/parking/ ## Industry context - **1 ratio** ADA minimum accessible parking is set as a ratio against the total number of spaces, with a separate van accessible requirement, so the obligation moves when a deck is restriped.

It is the practice of reconciling what a facility should have earned against what it did earn, across monthly permits, transient parkers, validations and event pricing. The difficulty is that each revenue type is measured differently and rarely lands in one place. ### How many accessible spaces does a garage need? The ADA sets minimum accessible parking requirements scaled to the total number of spaces in a facility, with additional van accessible requirements. Because the obligation scales with the total, restriping a deck can change what is required. ### What is a qualified transportation fringe? 26 USC 132 governs the tax treatment of employer provided parking as a fringe benefit, which is why corporate monthly parking arrangements carry a tax dimension a garage operator is often asked about. ### Are parking facilities separately licensed? In many cities, yes. New York City, for example, licenses garages and parking lots through its consumer protection agency, with posted rate and receipt obligations attached. ### Does this replace our PARCS system? No. Gates, ticketing and payment hardware stay where they are. What lives here is the reconciliation layer: occupancy against revenue by rate type, equipment faults and compliance counts, joined per facility. ## Sources - [ADA, accessible parking spaces](https://www.ada.gov/topics/parking/) - [IRS, Internal Revenue Manual 1.14.9, parking program](https://www.irs.gov/irm/part1/irm_01-014-009) - [NYC DCWP, garages and parking lots](https://www.nyc.gov/assets/dca/downloads/pdf/businesses/GaragesAndParkingLots.pdf) - [26 USC 132, certain fringe benefits](https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/26/132) - [VA, parking facility and EV charging revenue policy](https://department.va.gov/financial-policy-documents/financial-document/chapter-03-parking-facility-and-ev-charging-station-revenue/) ## Contact - office@neurobird.com - https://neurobird.com/
