Brentwood residents can look forward to an engaging Public Safety Day, which promises a fun-filled atmosphere with activities for families, including popcorn, balloons, and demonstrations from local fire and police departments. The event aims to foster community spirit and safety awareness, making it a highly recommended outing for families.

During the recent City Commission meeting, Commissioner Gowers and the Parks Department were commended for their proactive approach to e-bike safety. A video shared with the community highlights existing laws and best practices for managing e-bike use, emphasizing the importance of responsible vehicle selection for young riders. This initiative reflects a broader commitment to ensuring the safety of both riders and pedestrians in Brentwood.

Commissioners expressed hope that families will take the time to educate their children about safe riding practices, drawing parallels to the care taken when teaching kids to ride traditional bicycles. The discussion underscored the community's role in self-regulation to prevent incidents that could necessitate formal responses.

The City Commission plans to make the e-bike safety video available on the city’s website, ensuring that residents have access to valuable resources that align with Tennessee laws. This effort is part of a larger strategy to promote safety and awareness as the popularity of e-bikes continues to grow in the area. The meeting concluded with a commitment to ongoing discussions about safety measures and community engagement.
