Dear City Officials and Concerned Residents,I wouldlike to draw attention to the highlighted areas on the map, which indicate designated bike paths that are not accompanied by any striped or marked bike lanes on the roadways. In these zones, where speed limits exceed 40 mph as outlined in the relevant ordinances, the city may bear liability due to the absence of proper infrastructure. It appears that enforcement efforts, such as issuing tickets on a blanket basis along Main Street, are being prioritized despite this awareness. However, the lack of dedicated bike lanes in these areas— already acknowledged and mapped by the city' s own infrastructure— effectively permits the existing activities and forfeits the city' s ability to enforce related ordinances in these zones.Furthermore, if the city intends to pursue ordinances that restrict access for (1) CDL holders or (2) individuals with learner permits, such restrictions should not limit access to public roads where these operators are already authorized to travel. In light of this, I encourage a reconsideration of the classification for scooters operating under 15 mph, exempting them from the ordinance in question. Any additional requirements should align with those for e-bikes, based on speed classifications, withoutimposing restrictions on usage on other streets. Thank you for considering these points to ensure fair and consistent application of city policies.
