This ordinance amends Lincoln Municipal Code Title 10 to expand the scope and penalties for driving with a suspended, revoked, or impounded operator's license. The amendment extends violations beyond streets, alleys, and highways to include private property open to public access, aligning the city code with state law and Nebraska Supreme Court interpretation. The ordinance introduces judicial discretion to impose probation without mandatory license revocation upon conviction, consistent with recent amendments to Nebraska Revised Statutes §60-4,108 and §60-4,109. First-time offenders face up to six months jail time and/or fines up to $500, with a one-year motor vehicle operation prohibition and license revocation, unless the court places the person on probation, in which case revocation becomes discretionary. The ordinance was introduced on November 20, 2017.
