The Bentonville City Council voted unanimously Tuesday to restrict certain high-speed electric vehicles, banning gas-powered and electric vehicles with more than 750 watts of power from city sidewalks and trails. The rule doesn't affect most everyday e-bikes in federal classes one, two and three, which are limited to 750 watts; local shop owners say the more powerful machines are closer to motorcycles.
