Gunnar and Emily, In prep for Thursday and this opportunity, I can dig up the old emails to the Black Bear folks in case we wish to try with them again. Thanks Jonathan. I can be part of the team to help with this again. Derek

Thanks for sending this out, Jonathan. Can we add this to our agenda for this week, Gunnar?
You bet we can! Who wants to take charge of this? Emily? Jonathan? Bueller? (Emily might not know that we half tried this last year...)

What is a bike corral?
A bike corral converts the space of one car parking stall to parking for 10 bikes. It’s a great use of space and a low cost option for more
customer
parking, it frees up sidewalk space for pedestrian foot traffic and communicates a commitment to bike friendliness.
The Hopleaf Brewery is located in one of Chicago’s most bike focused neighborhoods. Many patrons arrive via bike throughout the year.
Turning a
loading zone into bike parking for 12 bikes has provided a boost for business at the brewery and has added to the streetscape of the neighborhood.
The Andersonville bike corral is part of a parklet designed as part of Chicago’s People Spot program. Custom logo plates promote
Andersonville’s
bike friendliness.
