Council members and residents raised safety concerns about electric bicycles, scooters and one‑wheeled skateboards operating on sidewalks and in traffic.

A councilmember said residents reported scooters and one‑wheeled devices “going on sidewalks, blowing through traffic lights, in and out of traffic,” and called the situation “a huge safety issue.” Council members asked whether the city could enforce conduct and were told a draft ordinance aimed at addressing micro‑mobility operation is in preparation for discussion at a future work session.

Utilities and public‑safety staff were not asked to present an enforcement plan during the meeting. One councilmember suggested adding the topic to a regular council meeting if scheduling does not permit a dedicated work session; others agreed to put the draft ordinance on an upcoming agenda once budget work sessions conclude.

No formal action or vote was taken; staff indicated the ordinance language is “in the works” and awaits scheduling for council discussion.

Council members and staff said the draft will be brought forward for discussion and that the timing depends on the council’s work‑session calendar and budget workload. No enforcement code or penalties were presented during the meeting.
