The Iowa City Bike Library (bikelibrary.org) has received various forms of city support over the years, including nearly free rent in a city-owned building while I worked there a few years ago. You might want to reach out to them for more info.

Recycle Ithaca's Bicycles is kind of sponsored by our city - by proxy. Our parent organization, though independent, is substantially funded by the city (among other sources).
RIBs isn't a co-op, though. Our history and community has a lot of background with cooperative structure and mutual aid, but we have a hierarchical structure planned for the foreseeable future.
Our city also has a infrastructure advocacy organization, and a bike share, so your situation and ours may be similar.

Hi folks!
I am currently pursing dual master's degrees in Env. Sciences and Public Administration. One of my courses is Urban Transit, and a project for it is a mock presentation tailored for a City Counsel study session. Another organization in town already focuses on advocating for infrastructure and we already have a bike share, so I would like to 'educate council' on bicycle co-ops. Has anyone done this? Or even better (maybe I'm dreaming), but does anyone know of any co-ops that are city-sponsored in some form?
