1. Approval by Municipal Government
- Study of Safety Considerations
- Authorization
- Resolution
2. Establish Local Businesses
- Dealer(s)
- Sales People
- Maintenance/Repair Shops(s)
- Customization Shop(s)
- Lease/Rental Businesses
- Insurance/Finance Businesses
Implementation is basically two parts. Part 1 involves a study by the municipality on whose roads the neighborhood vehicles will be driven upon to assess safety considerations. Note: Part of the assessment may include special accommodations. For example, the municipality may require the use of special routes, or post special signs, or designate special driving lanes. Once the municipality has assured itself that overall safety will not be jeopardized, the municipal government can authorize by ordinance or resolution the use of Neighborhood Vehicles on its streets per the state law and any additional local requirements they see fit to impose.
Part 2 involves the creation of local businesses to promote, sell, maintain, repair, customize, release, rent, insure, and finance local Neighborhood Vehicles. The required local government study, which probably will involve some types of opinion surveys and "town hall" meetings about "Neighborhood Vehicles", will by their nature develope local business interest. Also the use of neighborhood vehicles will support other local neighborhood business. I will suggest that putting the word "Neighborhood" in "Neighborhood Vehicle" will also put the word "neighborhood" in the places where people shop, because once people experience the benefits of a "Neighborhood Vehicle" they will begin looking for places to shop where "Neighborhood Vehicles" are permitted to travel.
