Public-safety committee recommends against legalizing side-by-sides on city streets
Summary
The public-safety committee reported it considered legalizing 'side-by-side' utility vehicles for city streets but, following low public turnout and limited support, recommended the council not pursue legalizing them on city streets.
A report from the public-safety committee noted the committee met recently to consider whether to legalize side-by-side off-road utility vehicles for operation on city streets. Committee members said only one member of the public attended the meeting and there was little support for the change. Based on the discussion, the committee recommended the city not pursue legalizing side-by-sides on city streets.
A council member summarized the committee's view as a recommendation not to move forward and the council acknowledged the recommendation during committee reports. No formal ordinance or amendment was proposed during this meeting; the matter remains at the recommendation stage.
