L.A. City Council members are voting on a proposed ordinance that would prohibit the assembly, disassembly, sale, distribution, or storage of bicycles and bicycle parts on public property.
“This ordinance does not feel like the most effective way of addressing a really serious problem which is bike theft,” Raman said.according to an analysis of crime data by Crosstown LA
“I think there are real potential investments that we could make like bike storage lockers and infrastructure on city streets to make it easier for people to store their bikes,” Raman said. The Los Feliz Neighborhood Council, however, is worried the ordinance would increase harassment of the unhoused, as well as Black and Latino cyclists.saying they oppose the ordinance, in part, because the language in the draft of the ordinance is too broad.
