NC-2009 SSc4.2: Alternative Transportation—Bicycle Storage and Changing Rooms
My client is building a destination resort which includes a hotel, golf course, spa, etc. I understand the need for bike racks for resort staff who will be commuting locally. But,would they need to include bike racks for the resort visitors? It is unlikely that anyone headed to a golf resort would arrive on their bike while pulling a trailer with their clubs!

Does LEED have any requirements on spacing or the type of bike racks used? What about security?
Are there specific requirements for the changing rooms, such as size?
Do bike racks have to be within the LEED project boundary?
Is a general storage room that is accessible to residents acceptable for covered bike storage?
Do I round up or down? What if the calculations show that I need 0.5 showers?

Hi Cista,
If you talk about transient occupants (guests), they can be excluded for a resort/hotel but not transient visitors.
On a previous resort project we excluded the transient visitors as well from bike calculation because the resort was isolated and it was unlikely that someone would get there in bicycle. At the opposite of guests you would have to justify it.
