Sec. 122-28. Taxicab service.

All persons engaged in the taxicab business in the city shall answer all calls received for services inside the corporate limits of the city as soon as they can do so; and if such services cannot be rendered within a reasonable time, they shall then notify the perspective passenger how long it will be before the call can be answered and give the reason(s) therefor. Any holder who refuses to accept a call anywhere in the corporate limits at any time the holder has taxicabs available or fails or refuses to provide taxicab service shall be deemed to have failed to satisfy the public convenience and necessity requirements of the taxicab operator permit issued to such holder. Any holder failing to provide the service herein set forth may be required to appear before the administrator to show cause why such permit should not be suspended or revoked. However, this provision does not prohibit a driver from refusing to transport an unruly or disorderly person.

(Ord. No. 2722, § A, 3-11-97)
