<p>Proposal to add a zone for residential zoned parking:

<p>Residential zoned parking is a local government practice of
designating certain on-street automobile parking spaces for the
exclusive use of nearby residents. It is a tool for addressing
overspill parking from neighboring population centers (such as a
shopping center, office building, apartment building, transit
station, stadium, or central business district). Typically,
residents in the zone pay a small fee to the government in
exchange for a placard or sticker placed on their automobile(s)
that indicates the zone designation (signified by a number or
letter).
</p>
<p>(...) It has been put into common practice throughout the United
States, and has even been used in non-residential areas when a
local street's parking is reserved for a business, museum or other
facility. <br>

<p>Rationale:</p>
<p>This tag improves maps for car drivers by guiding to a parking.
It is especially helpful when visiting a foreign city and not
being familiar with the boundaries (usually residents can issue a
visitor pass that allows visitors to park their car in a dedicated
zone).
