austin has done that for bikes and hence scooters....they allow bikes/scooters on a majority of their sidewalks from what I read.


Is it a non-starter to think KCMO could allow these on the sidewalk? That's about the only place I feel safe riding them.

Allow cyclists on the sidewalks on Main and Broadway?

I think that maybe a good idea....my only concern with blocking off certain streets with ordinance like Austin did is having to go back and managing that list as downtown changes.

can you link to that map you mention...I can't find it.

I mean it would suck no doubt....but you rent a second floor unit in a downtown neighborhood that has commercial space below.....got to factor that stuff in when you are looking at places.

Reading up on these in other cities, it seems to be a real mismash of sidewalk usage being legal. Austin it is as they fall under personal mobility assistive devices (segways too). They actually allow bikes on most downtown sidewalks (outside of like 6th Street). Other areas like SF it's not legal a...

Toured yesterday....overall place is great. The big suite on 7 wasn't that impressive except for the outdoor space. The regular rooms that were listed on the tour were all locked so didn't get to check out s room.

Loved the art....absolutely love that chandelier

There is some insane story on fox 4 about how poke is making living down there a "nightmare"

It always surprised me how hostile many businesses are to the neighborhood around them. I've not owned a retail business but I feel like your role as a business isn't to shape the hood but to support how that neighborhood grows and matures.

Same as other locales.

That surprises me.

The one I dropped this morning hasn't moved....I feel personally bad about that.

Did they confirm what exactly they were doing? Adding location? Moving? Butcher counter and/or pigwich?

I was surprised to find a week old permit hadn't made the public rounds yet....

Who do I need to talk to at these companies to publically say they won't put them in Westport due to the wonky private sidewalk sitch?

Don't play with our emotions.

It's really not in the way at all....that's like 15th on the list of potential problems that may come from these.

Crossroads seems like the only area parking enforcement works...and with no mercy.
