What’s wrong?
Missing bike rack, Blowers and Barrington.
Who’s responsible?
Allen Taylor, transportation planner, 490-6680.
REMARKS
Getting the city to install new bike racks is like pulling
teeth, so it’s especially maddening when perfectly goodexisting bike
racks disappear, like the one across thestreet from Venus Pizza did
sometime in the past year. “Probably we’ll replace it,” says Taylor.
“No one toldus about it.”

Make bikers pay to use the bike racks same as cars having to pay to use parking spots.
