AMENDMENTS TO TAXICAB REGULATIONS - ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE
5, ENTITLED "BUSINESS AND LICENSE REGULATIONS," CHAPTER 2,
ENTITLED "TAXICABS," TO ELIMINATE A LOCAL OFFICE, 24/7 SERVICE, AND
INSPECTION OF NEWER MODEL VEHICLES AND TO ALLOW A SURCHARGE
FEE ON CERTAIN DAYS AND NEMT SERVICES.
Comment: In response both to HF 2414 which the Gov'r. signed on May 9, and the
City's recent adoption of the "Transportation Network Company' (aka, the uber
ordinance), this ordinance eliminates certain requirements and allows business to
charge a new fee and provide Non -Emergency Transportation (NEMT) services.
HF2414 prohibits cities from requiring a taxi company from having a physical place of
business in the locality beginning 1/1/17. This ordinance also eliminates the
requirements that the company provide 24/7 service and City inspection of vehicles
newer than 10 years. Additionally, the ordinance allows for businesses to charge a
flat fee ("surcharge") on Uofl football weekends, Uofl graduation weekends, and New
Year's Eve. Staff intends to revise the administrative rules to allow taxicab
businesses to submit private background checks rather than requiring the drivers to
1,4 pay for Dept. of Criminal Investigation reports.
