Agenda Item 4. Dockless Bike and Scooter Ordinance Prepared By Marc Nevinski, Physical Development Director Maria Cisneros, City Attorney Summary In 2018, the City entered into an agreement with the micro-mobility company LimeBike (Lime) to deploy dockless bikes and scooters in Golden Valley. Since then, several other micro-mobility companies have expressed interest in operating in Golden Valley. The agreement with Lime worked well; however, without an ordinance the City’s ability to regulate the operation of multiple micro-mobility activities is limited. Given the interest expressed by other companies, and the potential for other companies operating in adjacent communities to spill over into Golden Valley, staff believes it is appropriate to consider an ordinance regulating the use of micro- mobility vehicles. An ordinance could allow the regulation of the number of vendors, placement of vehicle, and standards for operations, among other considerations. State statute currently allows the use of the public right of way for bicycle operations, including the parking of bikes on streets and sidewalks, and the removal of unauthorized vehicles. An ordinance would likely contain the following considerations: • Definitions regarding micro mobility vehicles and activities • Licensing of vendors, limits on the number of licenses, and criteria for obtaining licenses • Coordination with other communities • Operational factors, such as fleet size, response times, and seasonal operation, among others. City staff met recently with staff from Edina and St. Louis Park to discuss a regional approach to regulating micro-mobility, ordinances and licensing. Staff has also been in communication with Minneapolis and Bloomington about how those cities will approach micro-mobility in 2019 and beyond. Action Requested Staff will provide additional information at the Council/Manager meeting.
