The top local stories this morning from ËÄ»¢Ó°Ôº:
The Dallas City Council will vote at the end of the month on regulations for dockless bike-share companies.
City staff laid out at a council briefing Wednesday. If passed, bike-share companies would have to pay for a permit, provide ridership data to the city, and limit where bikes can be parked, among other things.
Five bike-share companies currently operate about 13,000 bikes in Dallas. That's down from a high of 20,000 earlier this year, when residents complained there were too many bikes blocking rights-of-way.
