Miami-Dade County is considering an ordinance (File Number 261016) to regulate the operation of micromobility devices, electric bicycles, and motorized scooters. The ordinance, titled VKB MICRO MOBILITY, was introduced on 6/1/2026 and adopted on first reading by the Board of County Commissioners on 6/16/2026, with a public hearing and second reading scheduled for 7/21/2026. The proposed regulations apply to Crandon Boulevard between the northern limits of the Village of Key Biscayne and the northern entrance of Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park, contingent on interlocal agreements with municipalities. Key provisions include speed limits of 20 mph, prohibition of sidewalk operation except for parking, and restrictions on parking to avoid obstruction. Municipalities can enforce these regulations and may adopt additional restrictions after a 60-day public awareness campaign and proper signage. The ordinance includes a sunset provision of 2 years from its effective date and establishes civil penalties for violations, with fines of $250 for a first offense and $500 for subsequent offenses.
