A hearing was held on February 17, 2015 at 4:30 p.m. to determine whether your authorization to operate a taxicab should be revoked for violating state statute. The following people were present at the hearing: City Clerk Marian K. Karr, Assistant City Attorney Sue Dulek, and Police Sergeant Paul J. Batcheller. You did not appear nor did anyone appear on your behalf. As you know, the City Clerk recommended that your taxicab driver authorization be revoked for the reasons outlined in her letter dated February 12, 2015. The recommendation stems from your February 10, 2015 arrest for operating a motor vehicle while impaired, a violation of Iowa Code section 321J.2. With no evidence presented on your behalf at the aforementioned hearing, I concur with the City Clerk's recommendation, and I am revoking your authorization to drive a taxicab in Iowa City effective immediately pursuant to Section 5-1-5B of the City Code.
