What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?Florida
I hope my title does not sound silly but here is what has happened. I live in an apartment complex that has allowed me and other bicyclists to lock and store our bikes under the stairwell of our apartment or in a space in the carports. The current manager issued notices regarding the removal of various items from under stairwells, outside on the porch- the issue was not that any items violated fire codes. The problem is that there are parking spaces where residents can park cars, motorcycles, rv's and even store trailers and boats all free of charge. Bicyclists such as myself are not given any option but to store our bikes in our apartment. The manager refuses to provide bike racks. I and other cyclist feel singled out, because some of us do not own cars and feel we should be entitled to store a bike in lieu of a car if we so chose.
