Golf carts now allowed on city streets in Cleveland
The Cleveland City Council just approved new legislation setting rules for the use of vehicles such as golf carts on city streets. The measure approved last night, sets speed, safety and registration requirements for small vehicles that can travel up to 20 miles per hour and weigh less than 3,000 pounds. News 5's Caitlin Hunt talked to one of the groups that helped get this ordinance passed. They are looking to use the golf carts for short-distance rideshare and tourism services in downtown Cleveland.

Our Mike Holden is breaking down the whole deal between Mayor Justin Bibb and the Haslams, as well as what happens next on Good Morning Cleveland.
