OWENSBORO, KY (WFIE) -

A 14 News update on an ordinance that would ban skateboarding and BMX riding in Downtown Owensboro.

The City Commission is expected to vote on the issue tonight after a second reading of the law.

Last Thursday, more than 100 people attended a forum about building a skate park so that skateboarders and BMX riders would have some place to go.

City officials say they will have a detailed plan for a skate park by their next work session in August.
