Bicycle parking issues continue to be discussed

The City of Decorah's Streets Committee and its Betterment Committee continue to discuss bicycle parking in downtown Decorah.

Street Committee chair Gary Rustad says a number of options are being discussed, including closing a parking space in three different downtown locations on Water Street for bike parking and using space in the North Alley parking lot.  Rustad says the downtown Self-Supporting Municipal Improvement District Board has pledged some funds for purchasing additional bike racks.

The Street Committee will meet at 6:00 p.m. Monday, December 10th to continue its discussion.  Rustad says bicyclists are invited to attend the meeting.
