Overview: Except for disability assistance, motorized vehicles are not permitted on the City’s recreational trails. The Park and Recreation Board recommends the proposed ordinance amendment to permit the use of Class I electric bicycles on the recreational trails. A Class 1 electric bicycle, as defined by state law, provides motorized assistance only when the person is pedaling and ceases to provide assistance when the bicycle reaches a speed of twenty miles per hour. Mopeds and motorcycles are not electric bicycles. The fastest speed permitted on any recreational trail of the City is 15 mph. SDCL 32-20B-9: Electric bicycle defined--Classes. For purposes of this chapter, the term, electric bicycle, means a bicycle or a tricycle that is equipped with a seat or saddle, with operable pedals for propulsion, and with an electric motor of seven hundred fifty watts or less. An electric bicycle is a Class I electric bicycle if the motor provides assistance only when the person is pedaling and ceases to provide assistance when a speed of twenty miles per hour is achieved. An electric bicycle is a Class II electric bicycle if the motor is capable of propelling the bicycle without the person pedaling and ceases to provide assistance when a speed of twenty miles per hour is achieved. An electric bicycle is a Class III electric bicycle if the motor provides assistance only when the person is pedaling and ceases to provide assistance when a speed of twenty-eight miles per hour is achieved.

Ord. No. 21-03-02 Prepared by: City Attorney No. of 1 Presented by: Mark Hoven, Director Attachments PR&F Item: Ordinance repealing the age limit for persons fishing at Lake Minne-Eho. City Manager’s Proposed Action: Motion by ___________ second by _________ to approve 2nd reading and final adoption of Ordinance No. 21-03-02. Overview: Aberdeen City Code, Sec. 36-71 limits fishing at Lake Minne-Eho in Wylie Park to children aged 15 years and younger. The South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks has stocked Lake Minne- Eho for free for many years. SDGF&P recently informed City officials that it cannot continue stocking the lake if fishing by the general public is prohibited. To avoid the potential loss of this valuable fish stocking service, the Park and Recreation Board believes that youth and family fishing can be encouraged through appropriate signage and recommends that the age limitation for Lake Minne-Eho be repealed. Below is the current ordinance: Sec. 36-71. Fishing in Lake Minne-Eho. No person over the age of 15 years shall perform the act of fishing in Lake Minne-Eho, commonly known as Wylie Park Lake. The term "fishing" means the taking, capturing, killing, or fishing for fish of any variety in any manner. Any person violating this section shall be issued an administrative fine as established in the city fee schedule on file in the office of the finance officer. Failure to remit the administrative fine within the time allotted shall constitute a misdemeanor. Primary Issues/Alternatives to Consider: Budgetary/Fiscal Issues: Attachments: 1.
