Dockless electric scooters and bicycles available for public rentals have appeared in cities throughout the country, where they are abandoned on streets, sidewalks and other public places. Often they are operated by minors without safety gear.

The presence and use of these devices creates safety concerns.  Accordingly, the Shared Mobility Device Ordinance amends Part 7, concerning Motor Vehicles and Traffic, of the City Code to prohibit the placement, use or offering for use of these vehicles within the City. 

First reading of this ordinance was held during the meeting of August 30, 2018. This is the second and final reading.
