I don't know the exact history or legal references...but I have been assured that the UW's lawyers looked into the matter and determined that UW can restrict moped parking in much the same way that it restricts automobile parking on Campus. -Dar

A bicycle, moped, or electric personal assistive mobility device may be parked in a bike rack or other similar area designated for bicycle parking. About two years ago I pointed out that there is a difference between parking in a bike rack, and parking adjacent to (thus unlawfully blocking pedestrian access to) a bike rack. Perhaps this logic is what applies? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dar Ward Sent: Monday, July 30, 2007 8:48 AM To: Tim Wong; [email protected] Subject: Re: [Bikies] UW West Campus biking Essentially, the UW is "private property" and we can set our own parking rules. The City is a different matter. It is my understanding that the City is working to remedy the issue...but it involves extensive signage. That's all I know about it. -Dar --------------------------------- Yahoo! oneSearch: Finally, mobile search that gives answers, not web links.
