I am part of a committee that has been formed to review the City of El Monte's taxicab ordinance. I would appreciate anyone who can help with all or any of the following. If you are not the contact for taxicabs, please forward this to the appropriate staff member. 1. Does your city franchise taxicabs? If so, how are the rates set? 2. If you do limit the number of companies and/or vehicles (with or without a franchise), how are the legitimate needs of the community determined? 3. How do you effectively enforce on bandit cabs? 4. What are your insurance requirements? Do you require uninsured motorist coverage? 5. I know that the State has requirements for taxicabs. But are there any Federal requirements? If anyone has a franchise agreement, ordinances or regulations that address these or any other concerns regarding taxicabs, please fax or mail them to me. Thank you.
