This question applies to Project ID 1000019331 with Pilot Credit 13:
Bicycle Network,Storage, and Shower Rooms.
Case 1. Requires secure, enclosed bicycle storage space.
Does a gated property area meet this requirement?
Another question: Does the enclosure without a roof meet the requirement?

Hi Tapio. Gates around the entire property do not meet the requirement of secure, enclosed storage. Acceptable forms of secure, enclosed storage are portions of the property that are individually gated. And, because we didn't explicitly require covered storage in the pilot credit, the enclosure does not need to be in order to earn the credit. But please note that we very much recommend it and - in the LEEDv4 credit shown in the 4th public comment - we require it via the definition of "long-term bicycle storage."

Thanks Chris, the bicycle storage in our project area is covered and we are ready for LEEDv4, too.
