eComment: Public Comment Regarding Proposed Ordinance No. 1576: 1 appreciate the City's
efforts to address safety concerns related to e-bikes, bicycles, and other regulated mobility
devices through a behavior -focused approach that prioritizes public safety while still allowing
lawful mobility use throughout the community. After reviewing the proposed ordinance, my
primary comment relates to Section 5346(e), regarding side -by -side riding, which currently
states: "Operating with more than two bicycles or regulated mobility devices side -by -side." I
understand the intent behind this provision, particularly in situations where pedestrian or
vehicular movement may be obstructed. However, as written, the language appears broad
enough to potentially apply even in low -traffic or recreational settings where side -by -side riding
may not create a safety issue. I think additional clarification could help distinguish between
obstructive behavior and ordinary recreational or community riding. For example, language
referencing situations "where pedestrians or vehicles are present", or "where movement is being
obstructed", may provide clearer guidance while still supporting the ordinance's safety goals.
Overall, I appreciate the City's attention to safety, clarity, and responsible operation of mobility
devices throughout Tustin. Veronica Ocon Tustin Resident Member, Vibrant Neighborhoods
