Hey guys,

I'm looking to park in the alleyway outside my work. I can definitely get permission from building management, so my concerns are fire and parking violations.

Could someone cite how far I have to be from an entrance/doorway/etc or any hydrant outlets that may be on the wall?

My second question is about parking in the alleyway: There aren't any "no parking" signs, but cars/delivery vans that park there quickly still end up getting tickets. What's the deal with this seemingly grey area?

I'm planning to leave a note on the bike when I park it saying it isn't in violation of blah blah blah & I have permission from building management & I'm wondering if that would even work

Thanks in advance,
