At
the Lincoln City Council's Monday night meeting
the first motion after the consent agenda was to
approve Bird E-scooters' allowance in the city.
With all eight aldermen present the motion
passed unanimously.
The vote was exclusive to Bird and not an
invitation for the general public to own and
operate scooters in Lincoln.
There are still details that need to be worked
out with the company and additional amendments
that will be considered.
LDN will have additional information on the
meeting discussion in a future edition. |
