  • May/June 1986 800 BOIT Pennsylvania
    WHY REGISTER NON POWERED BOATS? page 26 May/June 1986 800 BOIT Pennsylvania The Keystone State's Official Boating Magazine Recently I received a call from a large city agency advising that it was considering charging a fee to launch from its boat ramp. The fee discussed was $3 to $5 per launch. A county park system that operates a small lake charges $5 per year to launch — $7.50 if you're not a county resident. For the current annual fee of $4 to $6 if your boat is 16 feet or over, you can launch at some 190 Fish Commission ramps and countless other ramps owned or operated by state and local agencies. For owners of unpowered boats, you can launch free ($5 launch permit for state park ramps). In addition, you get a bit of boating safety education, the protection of the law, and some pretty good representation in Harrisburg. Sounds like a lot of bang for the buck. All these services for the cost of a small registration fee, of course, is not entirely true. The state marine fuel tax and the HOUSE BILL 2157 federal Wallop/ Breaux money, derived primarily from the federal marine fuel tax, provide considerable income to the Boat Fund. These three sources — boat registration fees, state marine fuel tax, and federal marine fuel tax — provide almost all the Boat Fund income. Note that all the income is derived from motorboats, and because the larger boats use more fuel, the larger the boat the greater the contribution. House bill 2157 has been introduced and is now wending its way through the legislative system.

  • E-Bike Public Comments Received Phase II
    E-bike Comments Received since BOCC packet: web (#125-211, 3 emails, 1 phone message) Thomas Barth Boulder Nov 13, 2019 Comment #211 Ridden e-bike: Yes Support recommendation: No Comments: I am fine with ebikes on commuter routes, but oppose their use on recreational mountain bike trials. I believe that in a congested trail environment like we have in Boulder, they will add to the hiker/biker conflicts. We already have difficulty managing human only powered activities, adding motorized vehicles is a step change. I know they are "power assisted" but adding 300 watts to a users output is a huge change. allow them on commuter routes, not mountain trails. robert GASS Boulder Nov 13, 2019 Comment #210 Ridden e-bike: Yes Support recommendation: Yes Comments: The staff has done a good assessment of the situation an their rationale for allow e-bikes on Open Space is sound. Peter Hurst Boulder Nov 13, 2019 Comment #209 Ridden e-bike: Yes Support recommendation: Yes Comments: Please allow E-bikes on county open space trails as recommended by staff. E-bikes allow me to get around town, to work, shopping and to take recreational rides on the LoBo trail. I am 70+ yrs old and if I can't use my e-bike I will drive. Charles Gray Boulder Nov 13, 2019 Comment #208 Ridden e-bike: No Support recommendation: No Comments: In my opinion E bikes of any type should NOT be allowed on trails other than those specifically designated as commuting routes; Boulder to Longmont for example. These vehicles do not mix well with standard bikes.

  • E-Bike Summary of Community Comment
    E-BIKE SUMMARY OF COMMUNITY COMMENT E-BIKE USE ON THE RECPATH 2018 FOR MORE INFORMATION VISIT: SUMMITCOUNTYCO.GOV/EBIKES Background A new Colorado law took effect Aug. 9, 2017, authorizing the operation of Class I and II e-bikes on bike or pedestrian paths where bicycles are authorized to travel. However, the bill also stipulates that local authorities can regulate e-bikes in their jurisdictions. Purpose of Public Comment Since the change in Colorado law, the Summit County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) has received numerous comments both for and against allowing e-bikes on the Recpath. The BOCC has tasked the Open Space and Trails Department with gathering more feedback from the public about e-bikes to determine whether this use might be appropriate on all, or portions, of the Recpath system. Note Only e-bikes on paved pathways are under consideration – not natural surface trails No e-bike use will be considered this year for dirt routes overseen by open space. This policy is consistent with the U.S. Forest Service's stance, which considers e-bikes a motorized vehicle. E-bikes are allowed on forest and county routes open to motorized uses. Goal of Public Comment Summit County and the towns of Breckenridge, Dillon, Frisco, and Silverthorne maintain and manage their respective sections of Recpath. Each jurisdiction is considering its own rules and regulations related to e-bikes, but we are working toward a shared vision for the Recpath system that preserves a seamless experience for Summit County residents and visitors.
