Board of County Commissioners · 2026-07-21 · ordinance

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 (BCC) on 6/16/2026, with a public hearing and second reading scheduled for 7/21/2026. The proposed regulations apply to Crandon Boulevard from the northern limits of the Village of Key Biscayne to the northern entrance of Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park, contingent on interlocal agreements with municipalities. The ordinance allows municipalities to enforce these regulations and potentially adopt additional restrictions. It sets operational rules including a 20 mph speed limit on County-owned rights-of-way, prohibits sidewalk operation except for parking, and mandates parking in designated areas that maintain 3 feet of clearance. Violations are subject to civil penalties, with first offenses costing $250 and subsequent offenses $500. The ordinance includes a sunset provision, expiring 2 years from its effective date.
