Portland Infill | Northeast Portland

I have to admit being befuddled by the ruckus around Portland's bike parking regulations. Is it really necessary to even have covered bike parking in the back of the building? Presumably a 6-story building has an elevator; can people not just take their bikes into and out of their apartments as needed? Not ultimately convenient, sure, but you can so easily store a bike in most apartments that rolling the extra expense of having dedicated bike parking spaces into construction/rent costs seems silly.
