Fwd: Cityracks Request

by Julio Rios

FYI: Some bike racks coming up sometime soon on 22nd St. Not sure it will help the safety issue much, but may help with overflow when space upstairs is limited. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Stanley, Jennifer <JStanley(a)oaklandnet.com> Date: Tue, Jul 16, 2013 at 10:27 AM Subject: RE: Cityracks Request To: Diana and Julio <dinju.judi(a)gmail.com> Hi Julio,**** ** ** Sorry for the long delay.**** ** ** After going out there a couple of times, I concluded that … [View More]the best location for racks was on 22nd St. Sites for four racks (accommodating a total of 8 bikes) were marked with white dots. In late May, we mailed the ground floor businesses and the property owner (per our usual process) and didn’t receive any comments. (We are also adding two more racks across the street in front of the Bruner’s Building.)**** ** ** The racks were added to a work order submitted to the Public Works crews who install them on June 7. There is currently quite a back log, so I apologize again for the delay. I can’t tell you when they will be installed L--it’s out of my control.**** ** ** The reason I opted against the Broadway location was because of the white zone/loading-unloading in front of the Sound Room and because removing and replacing the two U-racks there was a bit messy because the sidewalk is in such poor condition.**** ** ** Let me know if you have any questions.

I can't find an email about this, but I believe that we talked and agreed that the best solution was to remove the existing racks there, and replace them with multiple perpendicular racks. I thought you said it would take 3 months, but I'm pretty sure nothing has happened yet, so I wanted to ask and make sure it was still on your radar.

For the moment, those plans are on hold.**** **** However, I was wondering if the CityRacks Program would be able to put some bike racks on the Southwest corner of Broadway at 22nd Street (on the Broadway side). This is a commercial area and, recently, hosts a new hackerspace called SudoRoom on the second floor of the building, where many members use their bicycles to get there, but are forced to bring the bikes upstairs due to the lack of safety and visibility below. This corner would be a great location to have a pool of bike racks similar to what is in front of the New Parkway theater on 474 24th Street. I'm not sure if those bike racks were put up under the CityRacks program, but wanted to explore what was possible around Broadway and 22nd. There is plenty of room, but I don't know what kind of process we'd have to go through.**** **** Let me know if I should just submit a CityRacks request on the website.**** **** Thanks in advance for any guidance you are able to provide.**** **** Julio Rios**** **** On Mon, Oct 29, 2012 at 10:34 AM, Stanley, Jennifer <JStanley(a)oaklandnet.com> wrote:**** Hello Julio, First, please accept my apology for responding so late to this request. Second, the CityRacks program installs racks in commercial areas only, not residential areas. If the property owner wishes to install sidewalk bike racks they can; the process is outlined here: http://www2.oaklandnet.com/Government/o/PWA/o/EC/s/BicycleandPedestrianProg… .

sudo room access update

by Marina Kukso

hi everyone, the elevator was emergency locked again this morning. it is definitely a problem to have this continue to be an issue, but we are actively working on a solution (ie, coordinating with laurie and george to ensure that we're on the same page regarding the elevator access control system that we installed last week & the subsequent lack of a need to manually lock the elevator). thank you to everyone for their patience as we resolve these issues and thanks to everyone who's a part … [View More]
