📢 FYI
There has been some inaccurate information circulating on social media about the Village’s new motorized-device law. I want to clarify two important points:
1. This is not a Village-wide ban.
Local Law No. 9 of 2026 applies only to Village-owned parks and park property. It does not prohibit these devices throughout the Village.
2. Mobility devices used by people with disabilities are allowed.
Wheelchairs, power wheelchairs, mobility scooters, and other mobility aids used by people with disabilities or mobility impairments remain permitted in our parks.
The law prohibits electric scooters, electric bicycles, motorized bicycles and scooters, minibikes, dirt bikes, hoverboards, electric skateboards, and similar motorized devices within Village parks. Regular, non-motorized bicycles are not prohibited by this law.
This commonsense safety measure is intended to protect children, families, pedestrians, senior citizens, athletes, and everyone who uses our parks, while also protecting our lawns, trails, fields, and recreational facilities.
A special thank you to Kingston, Zack, and their mom, Katrina Ungvarsky, for helping me share this important reminder with our community!
