Do bike racks have to be within the LEED project boundary?

My project type serves visitors who can reasonably be expected to not be using bikes, e.g. hotel, airport, assisted living facility. Can I exclude them from bike rack requirements?

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?

With reference to LI #10209, I would appreciate clarification on the following: LI#10209:Applies only to mixed use building.What is defined as non-residential component per this interpretation? Would a leasing office, amenity area serving a residential building where the combined square footage of leasing and amenity is less than 10% of building Sq.

Thanks

Aaron, could you clarify the occupancy? What is the area of the leasing office? How about the amenity space? And what is all that in relation to the total building, which is what kind of usage?I am having a little trouble getting a picture of the project. thanks.
