The Durand City Council adopted a new city ordinance permitting the use of Off-Road Vehicles on city streets. The ORV ordinance follows a recently adopted resolution to also permit the use of golf carts on city streets. The new golf cart regulations took effect on August 3, 2020 and the new ORV ordinance will go into effect September 15, 2020.
 

Operation of golf carts and ORVs both come with certain regulations including the presence of lights, mirrors, and other safety features on all applicable vehicles. Golf carts are prohibited from travelling in excess of 15 miles per hours, and ORVs must not exceed 25 miles per hour on any street. All other traffic rules still apply to drivers of golf carts and ORVs. ORVs must be registered with the Secretary of State for on-road use but golf cart drivers may contact Durand City Hall at (989)288-3113 or complete the Golf Cart Vehicle Information Form on the City website. Providing basic ownership information is required in order to operate a golf cart locally. The Durand Police Department will enforce traffic and operator violations in accordance with City ordinance.
