Frostburg City Council E-Bike Update

The Frostburg City Council asked City Lobbyist Rich Reinhardt for an update about modernizing legislation for e-bikes and e-motos during Monday’s meeting.  Though the General Assembly focused on revenue last session, Reinhardt says he has been brainstorming with colleagues and state officials for the upcoming session.  Reinhardt says the overall consensus is that change is needed and seven different ideas are ready to pitch…

“There’s a possibility that we could see seven individual bills, or they may want to take a few of them and put them in maybe like a larger, somewhat omnibus bill.  But progress is going very well on that and, fingers crossed, hopefully by the end of the year we’ll have the commitments, and we could potentially see some ideas of what the draft would look like.”
