Pilot Program Allowing E-bikes on Paved Trails. (staff: Tessa Greegor, Paul Sizemore; 15 minute staff presentation; 45 minute discussion) The purpose of this item is to seek direction from Council on a proposal to implement a one-year pilot period to allow Class 1 and Class 2 electric-assist bicycles (e-bikes) on City paved trails. This proposal was initiated by recommendations from the City’s Transportation Board and Bicycle Advisory Committee in response to the growing popularity of e-bikes and their potential benefits, and Colorado’s adoption of new e-bike regulations in 2017, which allow Class 1 and Class 2 e-bikes on bicycle and pedestrian paths unless otherwise prohibited by the local jurisdiction (currently the case in Fort Collins). Most other Colorado jurisdictions now allow e-bikes on their trail systems. Following the recommendations from the Transportation Board and Bicycle Advisory Committee, staff formed a cross-departmental team to investigate the relevant issues, determine how other cities are managing e-bikes, develop a proposed framework for an e-bike pilot program, and gain input from associated boards and commissions. The proposed pilot program was presented to nine City boards, commissions and committees; seven have passed recommendations in favor of the implementation of a one-year pilot program to allow e-bikes on paved trails, and the remaining two are expected to take action in early February.  OTHER BUSINESS.  ADJOURNMENT.
