Puebloans could soon zip around town on an electric scooter, at a safe speed and wearing a helmet, of course.
The Pueblo City Council considered a first presentation on an ordinance to approve a license agreement between the city and Bird Rides, the shared electric scooter company that is proposing to bring a fleet of 200 scooters to town.
The ordinance calls for Bird to pay the city an initial annual license fee of $500 and renewal license fees of $200 each year after. Additionally, Bird would pay the city 10 cents per ride completed during the preceding year when they apply for renewal.
