Council adopts Enumclaw ordinance regulating electric motorcycles
Summary
On July 13, the Eden Plus/Enumclaw City Council adopted Ordinance 2839, adding a new Enumclaw city-code chapter on electric motorcycles after a committee report that requested publicity for training; the measure passed on second reading.
The Eden Plus City Council adopted Ordinance 2839 on second reading on July 13, adding a new chapter to Enumclaw’s municipal code to regulate the use and operation of electric motorcycles.
City clerk Justin read the ordinance by title, which the text describes as “adopting a new chapter 10.42 within the Enumclaw city code titled electric motorcycles.” Police Commander Tony Ryan provided the staff report and said there were no substantive changes to the recommendation. A committee member told council the committee had no objections and asked that any training be publicized.
Council moved and seconded the ordinance and, after a call for the vote, the motion passed. No individual roll-call tallies were recorded in the transcript.
Why it matters: the ordinance creates a defined regulatory framework for electric motorcycles in Enumclaw and includes a request that training and guidance be publicized to the public and enforcement staff.
What’s next: the ordinance was adopted at second reading; the clerk and police department will proceed with any public notices and training requested by the committee.
