The City of Bloomington has no plans to regulate the electric scooters that came to town one week ago.

A company called “Bird” has a fleet of the sharable devices in several cities, including Bloomington.

Indianapolis shut the services down earlier this summer until its city council passed new regulations. But Bloomington officials say they have no such plans.

Bloomington Communications Director Yael Ksander says the city is simply encouraging safety etiquette.

"We have not responded with any kind of new code or new regulations or definitely not any sort of moratorium," Ksander says. "We’re enthusiastic about it, however it’s really important people remember to follow safety guidelines."

Some of those include staying off sidewalks while riding and parking out of the public’s right of way.

The Bloomington Police Department says, for now, it will pass along any complaints it gets about the scooters to the mayor’s office. That’s until it’s more clear how any arising issues should be handled.

Ksander says the city has only received one emailed complaint.
