Short-term and long-term bicycle parking requirements

  The NPDES permits require postconstruction runoff (post-project hydrology) to match the preconstruction runoff (pre-project hydrology) with the installation of postconstruction stormwater management measures. The NPDES permits emphasize runoff reduction through on-site stormwater use, interception, evapotranspiration and infiltration through nonstructural controls, such as Low Impact Development (LID) practices and conservation design measures. Stormwater volume that cannot be addressed using nonstructural practices is required to be captured in structural practices and be approved by the enforcing agency.

  Refer to the current applicable permits on the State Water Resources Control Board website at: www.waterboards.ca.gov/constructionstormwater. Consideration to the stormwater runoff management measures should be given during the initial design process for appropriate integration into site development.

  5.106.4 Bicycle parking. For buildings within the authority of California Building Standards Commission as specified in Section 103, comply with Section 5.106.4.1. For buildings within the authority of the Division of the State Architect pursuant to Section 105, comply with Section 5.106.4.2.

  5.106.4.1 Bicycle parking. [BSC-CG] Comply with Sections 5.106.4.1.1 and 5.106.4.1.2; or meet the applicable local ordinance, whichever is stricter.

  5.106.4.1.1 Short-term bicycle parking. If the new project or an addition or alteration is anticipated to generate visitors, provide permanently anchored bicycle racks within 200 feet of the visitors’ entrance, readily visible to passers-by, for 20 percent of the peak daily visitors, with a minimum of one two-bike capacity rack.

  5.106.4.1.2 Long-term bicycle parking. Acceptable bicycle parking facility for Sections 5.106.4.1.2.1, 5.106.4.1.2.2 and 5.106.4.1.2.3 shall be conveniently located near the street and shall meet one of the following:

  1. Covered, lockable enclosures with permanently anchored racks for bicycles;
  2. Lockable bicycle rooms with permanently anchored racks; or
  3. Lockable, permanently anchored bicycle lockers.

  Calculations for bicycle parking requirements shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

  5.106.4.1.2.1 For new buildings with tenant spaces, provide secure bicycle parking for 10 percent of the tenant-occupants, with a minimum of one bicycle parking facility.

  5.106.4.1.2.2 For additions or alterations, provide secure bicycle parking for 10 percent of the tenant-occupants being added, with a minimum of one bicycle parking facility.

  5.106.4.1.2.3 For new shell buildings in phased projects, provide secure bicycle parking for 10 percent of the anticipated tenant-occupants, with a minimum of one bicycle parking facility.

  5.106.4.2 Bicycle parking. [DSA-SS] For public schools and community colleges, comply with Sections 5.106.4.2.1 and 5.106.4.2.2. 5.106.4.2.1 Student bicycle parking. Provide permanently anchored bicycle racks conveniently accessed with a minimum of four two-bike capacity racks per new building.
