1
Item Pedicab Ordinance
Description
The State Fair Task Force has recommended that the city adopt regulations for the
safe operation of pedicabs in Falcon Heights prior to the start of the Minnesota State
Fair.
State law regulates the authority of a statutory city such as Falcon Heights to pass an
ordinance regulating pedicabs or other small passenger vehicle services. The
requirements are:
Minn. Stat. 221.091
Subd. 2.Small vehicle passenger service. (a) A statutory or home rule charter city that licenses
and regulates small vehicle passenger service must do so by ordinance. The ordinance must, at a minimum, provide for driver qualifications, insurance, vehicle safety, and periodic vehicle
inspections.
(b) A statutory or home rule charter city that has adopted an ordinance complying with this
subdivision may enforce the registration requirement in section 221.021.
(c) A statutory or home rule charter city that regulates, by ordinance, pedicabs, rickshaws, or
other similar vehicles used for passenger service may permit authorized vehicles to be equipped
with an electric motor that meets the requirements for an electric-assisted bicycle under
section 169.011, subdivision 27, clause (3).
Staff worked on a draft ordinance that has been reviewed by our City Attorney.
Approving the ordinance and getting a licensing program up and running in six
weeks will pose a challenge for staff, but we believe it is possible to get done in time
for the Fair.
The City Council is requested to review the proposed draft ordinance and provide a
recommendation to Staff whether to proceed with the next steps in the ordinance and
fee schedule amendment process.

conclusion of the contest, the City had received one submission. The submission
was done as an oil painting.
