York County leaders plan to take their final vote tonight on a law that would penalize those who ride all-terrain vehicles on others’ land.
Under the proposed law, anyone wanting to ride an ATV on private property must obtain written permission from the landowner. If someone is caught riding without permission, he could be fined $300 to $500 or jailed for 30 days.
The law likely would restrict more people than ATV riders. York County Sheriff Bruce Bryant has asked that it apply to those riding dirt bikes and in larger off-road vehicles. The council will vote on those updates tonight.
The public also will be able to offer opinions on the issue at tonight's meeting, which is scheduled for 6 p.m. at the county's Agricultural Building in York..
