Council clarifies parks code to ban motor‑assisted scooters
Summary
Ordinance No. 2452 amends Euless code to make the existing parks prohibition on scooters explicit for motor‑assisted scooters and defines the term consistent with state law; council approved the ordinance on first and final reading.
City Manager Chris Barker introduced Ordinance No. 2452 to amend the City of Euless Code of Ordinances, chapter 54, to clarify that the existing prohibition on scooters in parks also applies to motor‑assisted scooters. Barker explained the update adds a definition of motor‑assisted scooters and aligns the ordinance language with state law.
Councilmember Bynum moved approval and Councilmember Paddell seconded; the mayor called for votes and the motion passed. Barker summarized the change as a clarification: "The clarification...is that our prohibition will also apply to motor assisted scooters," and said staff would attach a definition to the ordinance consistent with state law.
