LAWA does not have the legal authority to close independent parking garages, nor would LA County dare to try, they would be in court for years. If they require hotel shuttles to use the consolidated facility for passenger access, they could require off site parking companies to do the same, but if they allowed hotel shuttles direct terminal access, they could not restrict the parking lots without going to court. Any attempt to restrict these businesses would be hugely unpopular and end up in court for decades.
