Chris,

Following is a response to your request of Don Spencer for the Morgantown Municipal Bicycle Board’s recommendation on bicycle storage space for multi-family dwellings in areas zoned B-4.  Based upon precedents set by cities of similar size and demographics, we recommend the following MINIMUM guidelines:

• 1 indoor, secured, sheltered bicycle storage space per dwelling unit should be provided. (Ideally 2 spaces per dwelling unit should be provided.)
• Each space should be a minimum of 3-feet x 6-feet x 4-feet
• Each bicycle should be able to be individually secured with a lock to a permanent structure.
• There should also be sufficient space for easy access to each bicycle.
  

Please feel free to contact me at my e-mail address or phone number below to discuss.  Also, please reply with confirmation of your receipt of this letter.

Sincerely, 

Frank Gmeindl, Chairman
