The Birmingham Parking Authority, created by Act 2079 of the Alabama legislature in October 1971, oversees the construction and operation of off-street public parking lots and decks for the City of Birmingham.

As a functioning "special district government" under Alabama law, the Authority can borrow money, issue revenue bonds, acquire property and impose service fees.
