City Moves to Regulate E-Bikes for Safety | Pierre News
City officials are drafting new rules for e-bikes and personal electric vehicles to address rising safety concerns on sidewalks and trails, after community feedback pushed for a standalone ordinance. The plan classifies e-bikes by speed, sets age and helmet requirements, enforces speed limits on trails, and treats violations as misdemeanors—with fines, impoundments, and parental accountability for minors. Designed to balance innovation with public safety, the rules clarify terms like “sidewalk” and exclude mobility aids for disabled users, aiming to prevent accidents as PEVs become more common in daily transit.

Paraglider Crash Probe Reveals Key Violations | Pierre News
Federal investigators have revealed shocking new details about the August paraglider crash that killed eight-year-old Travis Schaunaman’s son and left the mayor critically injured — the aircraft didn’t qualify as an ultralight, held more fuel than allowed, and was designed for multiple passengers. Worse, the mayor, who holds a drone pilot certificate, wasn’t licensed to fly manned aircraft. The NTSB has seized the plane for further analysis as the probe continues, while the community rallies around the grieving family.

Judge Blocks Trump Settlement Fund | Pierre News
A federal judge has refused to dismiss a landmark case challenging a Trump-era settlement fund designed to reward “victims of lawfare” and grant tax immunity to Trump and his organization, raising alarms over taxpayer money being funneled into political favoritism. The judge questioned whether a “functional equivalent” of the fund still exists — potentially benefiting groups the administration opposes — and ordered the Justice Department to produce documents within 30 days to reveal how the deal was structured. Plaintiffs, including the National Abortion Federation, argue the fund is discriminatory, targeting those who denied election results or participated in violence like the January 6 Capitol attack. The case also probes constitutional grounds, including the emoluments clause, as critics claim the tax breaks violate fairness and presidential ethics. With the legal battle far from over, this ruling signals a deepening scrutiny of executive power and its intersection with financial policy.
