Annual Bike Clean Up! Register Your Bike Today!
In an effort to properly maintain the bicycle racks within University Housing, we annually ask residents to cooperate with the Housing Staff so that abandoned bicycles can be removed from the bicycle racks and thus creating adequate space for current resident bikes.
On Monday, June 18th beginning at 8:30 a.m., ALL UNTAGGED bicycles will be removed from the bike racks in University Housing. In order for your bicycle not to be removed from the bike rack, please follow these steps:
- Visit the Cougar Village Commons, starting Monday, June 4th, 2018 through Sunday, June 17th, 2018 to register your bike. The Commons Hours are 8:00am – 8:00pm Monday-Friday; 10:00am-8:00pm Saturday-Sunday.
- Once you register your bike, you will receive a numbered tag that needs to be tied to the handlebars of your bike by 7:30 a.m. on Monday, June 18th, 2018. University Housing will not remove tagged bikes that are properly stored at the bike racks.
- You may remove the numbered tag on your bike beginning at 7:30 a.m. on Wednesday, June 20th, 2018.
ALL bikes without a numbered tag will be removed from the bike racks on Monday, June 18th, 2018. If you are missing a bicycle, please visit the Cougar Village Commons front desk. You will need to provide a description of your bike and the location where your bike was stored. Confiscated bicycles will be stored for 30 days and then taken to the University surplus property.
Reminder from the University Housing Living Guide
Bicycles and other personal property left outside or improperly stored in the storage closets on the Cougar Village 500 side, in any hallway, breezeway, stairwell or apartment will be removed without notice and held for two weeks by University Housing Facilities Management. These items present a fire hazard in the storage areas due to the electrical equipment housed there and a safety hazard in hallways, breezeways, and stairwells. If items are reclaimed, a $25.00 charge will be issued at the time or reclamation.
If you have any questions regarding this process, please contact: Ryan Van Loo at 618-650-2964 or rvanloo@siue.edu
Close the Building Doors!
In an effort to prevent wildlife from entering the apartments, University Housing asks that you keep your doors closed and the doors entering the apartment buildings.
Thank you for your cooperation!
