# Legislative Public Hearing - September 29, 2026

The Albany County Legislature held public hearings on September 29, 2026, concerning Resolution 306, a proposed local law on requirements and prohibitions for electric scooters and electric-assist bicycles, and Resolution 307, a proposed amendment to the county code regarding a tax exemption for veterans with service-connected disabilities. Speakers on Resolution 306 generally supported safety goals but urged a broader approach, including education, infrastructure, retailer and trail signage, helmet distribution, and action on the sale and marketing of illegal e-motos. They also raised concerns that the proposal could burden people who rely on legal e-bikes and scooters. No one spoke on Resolution 307.

Both public hearings were closed; the transcript records no vote or action on either proposed law. A motion to adjourn was made and seconded, followed by a call for ayes. No procurement activity, contract awards, or spending decisions were identified.
