The #FQBA, along with Vieux Carre Property Owners, Residents, and Associates, French Quarter Citizens, French Quarter Management District, and N. Rampart Main Street Association, are working to limit the City's proposed bike share program stations to the perimeter of the French Quarter and to request public bike corrals in the interior of the French Quarter. The Association's major concerns with the program are:
1. The erosion of the historic integrity and authenticity of the French Quarter
2. Competes with existing French Quarter bike rental companies
3. Bike share stations would be located in needed residential and business delivery/freight zones
4. Bike share stations located in public street parking spaces
5. Lighted advertising billboards which are inappropriate for the French Quarter and against the Vieux Carre Commission guidelines
6. Bikes can be locked to private and public property with locks that cannot be removed (i.e. wrought iron fences, balcony posts, etc.)
7. No recourse for damage to private property by bikes
8. No enforcement and citation mechanism
9. Billboards are graffiti and vandalism targets
10. Program operated by third party company with 10-15 employees, which is an inadequate number of personnel to redistribute bikes out of the French Quarter during events (i.e. festivals, sporting events, etc.)
