Council Approves
Bicycle Ordinance

Approval of a bicycle ordinance
was given at the regular meeting
of the Mayor and Town Council of
Oakland on Monday evening. The
ordinance will take effect nev
April !.
The regulations call for an inspec-
ton of all bicycles and a permit to
be issued when the vehicle is found
to be in good mechanical condition
Owners must have a license tag
in order to operate. Owners will
not be permitted to carry any
other person upon the handle bars
or frame, & light will be necessary
at night, hands must be kept on the
handle bars at all times and no
fancy riding tricks will be allowed.
The ordinance was presented by
Henry Arnold chief of police with
approval of a number OF bicycle
eYaeys--Arael said one of the
reasons 'fof the ordinance is an at
tempt to stop the theft of bicycles
within the town. He said they can
be more easily identified if they
do or do not have license tags.
The Mayor and Council also re-
ceived a copy of a coming ordinance
of the city of Rockville. which they
requested a few weeks ago. Mem
bers of the council have been dis
cussing the possibility of a coming
ordinance for the town of Oakland.
There was no action taken at Mon
days meeting. The secretary of the
Maryland Municipal league. who
furnished the copy of the Rockville
ordinance, suggested that if the
Oakland council was seriously in
terested that they obtain a profess
sional planner because of the large
amount of work involved in prepar-
alton Of the ordinance.
Among other action the council
also granted permits to Graham
