GENERAL REFERENCES
Skateboards — See Ch. 422.
[Adopted as Sec. 3-14 of the 1997 Revised General Ordinances]
The Mayor and Council find that the leasing of motor scooters, motor
bikes, motorized bicycles and motorcycles will greatly increase hazards to
pedestrians and vehicular traffic in and around the streets and highways of
the City, will precipitate noise so as to constitute a nuisance and detract
from the peaceful enjoyment of the residents and visitors to the City, and
will otherwise create problems involving the health, safety and welfare of
the residents and visitors of the City.
It shall be unlawful to lease, bail or rent motor scooters, motor bikes,
motorized bicycles, or motorcycles within the City.
[Adopted 12-21-2004 by Ord. No. 12-2004
(Sec. 3-14A of the 1997 Revised General Ordinances)]
The City Council of the City of Cape May finds that the unregulated
operation of personal assistive mobility devices more commonly known as "Segways"
as defined by N.J.S.A. 39:4-14.10(1)(a) within the City is a hazard to pedestrians
and vehicular traffic in and around the streets, highways, and sidewalks of
the City so as to constitute a nuisance and detract from the peaceful enjoyment
of the residents and visitors to the City, and will otherwise create unnecessary
risks involving the health, safety and welfare of the residents and visitors
of the City.
It shall be unlawful to engage in the business of leasing or renting
Segways for use upon any public streets, highways, sidewalks or any other
public property within the City.
The operation of Segways is permitted within the City; provided, however,
that the operation of a Segway by any person within the City shall be strictly
limited to designated bicycle paths and private property. The operation of
Segways upon any public streets, highways, sidewalks or any other public property
within the City is strictly prohibited.
