Incident Description:
Bike was locked in front of the South Blvd. CTA Purple Line stop in Evanston @ South and Chicago Ave. There was no room in the bike rack so I had it locked to the 'Hospital this way' sign right next to the bike rack. I called the city of Evanston hoping that perhaps they had the bike removed because of the fact that it was locked to a street sign and maybe that was against an ordinance, but they stated that they unfortunately don't have my bike in their inventory.
