It is a mode of transportation that is completely acceptable.

Skating should always be legal. Would we prefer people to pick up burglary as a hobby?

While I don't skateboard myself, and due to a bone disease, never will, I completely support this. Look at information on other locations that have approved this same movement, you'll see that there's no good reason NOT to allow this.

Why should a non-motorized vehicle be prohibited on the sidewalk? Skateboarders can't ride on the roads legally or safely, so where can they ride? Please allow skateboarding to continue to flourish in Hammond. Dreamland was built for a reason!!

Skating is a means of transportation and is WAAAY easier and more enjoyable on sidewalks. These knuckleheads need to come to a college university. A LOT of people skate, and NOTHING happens. I don't understand the problem? Is it because people stare at their phones and get surprised when a skateboarder is flying by them? How about pay attention to your surroundings. Revise this measure.

Keeps everyone safer. If they are on side walks, they won't be in the street on the way to the skate park. We need more side walks...one for every street

Skateboards should be allowed since other form of wheeled transport are allowed.
