ATV Ordinance in Fall River Under Development

The Ordinance and Legislation Committee will continue to work with the Corporation Counsul and Fall River's City Administrator to craft an ordinance regarding the proliferation of ATVs and motor bikes on Fall River Streets. 

 

Corporation Counsul Alan Rumsey noted that Commonwealth Statutes already prohibit ATVs from City Streets, while FRPD Interim Police Chief Paul Gauvin indicated that techniques are being developed to help aprehend those who are operating the vehicles illegally. 

 

Ordiances in Providence, Boston and Taunton are being examined and language will likely be part of a Fall River Ordiance.
