Borough attorney introduces e-bike ordinance update for introduction
Summary
At the March 18 caucus, Borough Attorney Baxter said an amendment to West Long Branch's e‑bike ordinance was on for introduction and "will make the existing one current to the new state law." Council did not debate details in caucus; the ordinance was placed on the evening agenda for introduction.
Mayor Janet W. Tucci opened the West Long Branch caucus meeting on March 18, 2026, and Borough Attorney Baxter told the council an e-bike ordinance amendment was on for introduction that evening. Baxter said the change "will make the existing one current to the new state law."
The announcement gave the council authority to introduce the amendment during the public meeting; no substantive debate or amendment text was discussed during caucus. The transcript does not specify which provisions of the local ordinance will change or identify the state statute or effective dates. The attorney's comment was limited to the ordinance's goal of aligning the borough rule with recent state-level changes.
The ordinance introduction is the next procedural step listed on the evening agenda; further readings, public comment, or votes would be scheduled according to the borough's ordinance-adoption process.
