The Wichita suburb of Goddard is proposing a new ordinance to regulate micromobility devices like minibikes, hoverboards, and motorized scooters, including age limits, helmet requirements, and fines for improper use. Nearby suburbs such as Rose Hill, Cheney, Garden Plain, and potentially Valley Center are also adopting or considering similar e-vehicle regulations.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Micromobility.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Municipal micromobility rules are spreading near Wichita, making it urgent for you in micromobility device ventures to adjust compliance and marketing to local age and safety rules. Enforcement of fines and helmet mandates means you need clear customer and user education immediately.
