The city council may grant a taxicab operator’s license if the city council finds that:

(2) The applicant is a fit and proper person to possess a taxicab operator’s license;

(3) The applicant has complied with all of the provisions of this chapter; and

(4) The applicant has at least 15 vehicles in its fleet to operate as taxicabs within the city.* (Ord. 553 §§ 7, 8; Ord. 505 § 3. 2002 Code § 6-21.5).

* Editor’s Note: Section 14 of Ordinance No. 553 provides that existing taxicab operators with a valid license may continue to operate without complying with the provision of subsection (4) of this section.
