US sidewalk delivery robot regulations: city permit database 2024-2025

Task description

Compile a database of US cities that passed, updated, or are actively enforcing sidewalk delivery robot regulations as of 2024-2025. California, Virginia, Texas, and Florida have state-level frameworks; many cities have added their own permit requirements. Requirements: - City name and state - Regulatory type: ban, permit required, allowed-without-permit, or pending - Date the regulation took effect or was passed - Weight/speed limits if specified - Geographic restrictions (sidewalk only, crosswalks, etc.) - Primary source (ordinance text URL, city council vote record, etc.) - Which operators are known to be permitted in that city
