Ordinance No. 20-O-09AA amends Chapter 17, Article IV of Tallahassee's General Code to establish regulatory requirements for a shared micro-mobility device program on public rights-of-way, including vendor responsibilities, device operation and parking standards, removal authority, enforcement mechanisms, and insurance requirements. The ordinance is authorized under Florida Statutes Section 166.041 and Section 316.008(7)(a), which permit municipalities to regulate motorized scooters and similar devices on sidewalks at a maximum speed of 15 miles per hour. The City Commission authorized a pilot program on May 15, 2019 to permit and regulate the use of dockless motorized scooters. The ordinance addresses concerns about unattended micro-mobility devices creating hazards to pedestrians and ADA accessibility on City streets, parks, and sidewalks, with the City having a population of approximately 195,000 people.
