City Council

12B. Council initiated item from Council Member Jim O’Hara regarding an ordinance to create amendments to the City of Encinitas, California’s Municipal Code Title 14 (Traffic Codes) Regarding Bicycles, specifically addressing e-bike safety. Environmental Considerations: The action being considered by the City Council is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a "project" under Section 15378(b)(5) of CEQA Guidelines. The action involves an organizational or administrative activity of government that will not result in the direct or indirect physical change in the environment. Recommended Action: Direct City Manager to work with the City Staff and Sheriff's Department to return with amendments to the City of Encinitas Municipal Code Title 14 that address e-bike safety in the City of Encinitas. 2026-01-28 Item 12B Council Initiated Item O’Hara - Ebikes Jan 2026
