City of Statesboro to Host Public Information Meeting January 23, Feedback on Personal Mobility Device Ordinances

The City of Statesboro will be hosting a public information meeting Tuesday, January 23, 6:00 pm, at City Hall. The meeting is to discuss and review two proposed personal mobility device ordinances.

Statesboro’s current laws were written before scooters and other forms of personal mobility devices were popular methods of transit. The two proposed ordinances would adopt unified standards for companies that rent or lease PMDs within the city and clarify how users must operate the PMDs.

Members of the public are invited to attend the meeting and share their ideas on how the city can responsibly regulate the use of personal mobility devices while also ensuring greater access to affordable and alternative methods of transportation.
