OPEN SPACE TRUSTEES REJECT STAFF'S E-BIKE PROPOSAL

After a 7-month long public engagement process, the City of Boulder Open Space & Mountain Parks (OSMP)'s Open Space Board of Trustees (OSBT) voted 3-2 against their own staff's proposal to allow e-bikes on some city open space multi-use paths and trails. This matter will be decided by Boulder City Council, and a public hearing is tentatively scheduled for early June.

Boulder Reporting Lab wrote a great article on this complex issue and is recommended reading.
