People in Menomonie can now drive neighborhood electric vehicles on city streets.
Monday night, the City Council unanimously approved an ordinance approving the NEV's. City Attorney Ken Schofield says the ordinance is a direct response to an electric vehicle UW-Stout bought to help patrol parking lots.
Schofield says now anyone in the city can drive one of these NEV's on city streets, as long as it's registered with the state and that person has a valid driver's license. He says it's very similar to an ordinance in Eau Claire.
