We at 1304bikes here in Raleigh recently had our shop shut down by the city due to zoning/building code issues.  We are currently regrouping and fundraising, while trying to find a new space. 

We like to hear from other shops as to what kind of support you get from the cities you are located in (the actual city government, not the people in it).  Whether it be donated space, money, or just good will.  We are hoping to get some info about relationships that other shops have with their respective cities to use in our attempt to find a new location. 

Thanks all!
