Exciting News from the Pine Beach Police Department!
We’re proud to introduce the Excellency Program at Pine Beach Elementary School! This initiative is all about teaching our 5th-grade students the importance of a positive attitude, responsibility, respectfulness, and integrity—qualities that will help them succeed as they grow.
​
Each marking period, teachers will select two students who best demonstrate these values, and those students will be invited to a pizza party with our officers, followed by a fun-filled game of dodgeball!
​
Selected students will also receive:
- A Certificate of Excellence
- A Pine Beach Police patch
- Their picture posted on our Facebook page (with permission, of course!)
Lt. Ryan Morris had the honor of visiting the school to present the Excellency Program to all the 5th-grade classes. It was a great opportunity to kick off this amazing initiative and connect with our future leaders.
We can’t wait to see the incredible students who will shine through this program and continue to make our community proud!

Low Speed Vehicles (LSV)
Can I drive a golf cart-style vehicle on the roads?
Sure. Currently, in the Borough of Pine Beach there is no ordinance to restrict ‘Low Speed Vehicles (LSV)’.
However, there are State restrictions on operating a golf cart (LSV). Here are some bullet points to at least address the basic questions we have been receiving:
-
You may not drive LSVs on roadways with speed limits that exceed 25 mph. Roadway does include the shoulder.
-
A LSV is a four-wheeled vehicle with an attainable speed of more than 20 miles per hour, but no more than 25 miles per hour on a paved surface. It cannot be powered by gas or diesel fuel and must comply with federal safety standards as noted in 49 CFR 571.500.
-
Child restraints in LSVs must meet the same standards as those used in passenger vehicles.
-
You must have a valid driver’s license to operate a LSV.
-
A LSV may be registered in the name of an individual, business or government entity, but may not be used as a commercial vehicle.
-
You are subject to the same violations as other vehicles.
-
All LSVs shall have a safety information decal provided by the manufacturer on the rear of the vehicle.
-
If you have only one license plate, you must put it on the rear of the vehicle.
-
LSVs must meet Federal and State requirements. (Make sure you read these.)
