(Ron: Please pass this on to Sarah)
The best bike rack design is two vertical posts about two feet apart.
Optionally made out of one piece of pipe bent into an upside down "U".
This fits all sizes of bikes!
Spaced so two bicycles can use one pair of posts.
Less material (which is "greener"), and easier to get the bicycles in and out.
Something like

though those posts in those "U"s could be another 6" to 12" apart.
I can see why the city would like a "corral",
that is a fence on three sides.
It increases safety for everybody,
and keeps the bicycles safer.
