Frequently Asked Questions
How long will it take?
Requests will be processed once at least five (5) rack locations have been submitted for approval; this means that processing times may vary depending on the number of requests at a given time. Program-wide, a minimum of five racks must be approved in order to begin installation. Installation may take place as soon as the location is approved and minimums are met.
Who can request bike parking?
Installation sites may be requested by anyone- business or property owners, residents or guests of a local business are all encouraged to request bike parking.
What constraints are there for bike rack installations?
Bike racks paid for by the City must be installed within 50 feet of a main entrance and on public right-of-way concrete sidewalk or other concrete footers.
Loading or bus zones, cracked sidewalks, in-pavement utilities, parking space locations, parking meters and entrance locations all dictate whether or not a rack can be installed at a particular location.
A fee is required for any rack installed on private property
Rack locations requiring the construction of a concrete slab may not qualify for approval.
