This section is included in your selections.

Upon application for a vehicle-for-hire license, the proposed licensee shall file with the director a schedule of for-hire vehicle rates charged to the public. This schedule shall include rates for the following:

A. Minimum charge;

B. Rate per mile or fraction thereof above the minimum;

C. Charges for each additional passenger above one;

D. Charge for vehicle waiting time;

E. Additional charge for baggage or suitcases;

F. Any separate rate for service during the hours of midnight to 6:00 a.m.

The rate schedule shall be on file with the director for inspection by the public during normal city business hours. In addition, each for-hire licensee hereunder, except limousine operators, shall conspicuously display in the interior of the vehicle the rates of fare as required to be filed above. This posting must be located in the passenger compartment in a typewritten notice so as to be easily read by a passenger.

When the licensee changes its rates, in total or in part, the licensee shall file a schedule of new rates with the director at least ten days before said new rates become effective. Likewise, the new rates shall be posted within the interior of the vehicle prior to the effective date of the new rates.

The licensee shall charge only those rates set forth in the schedule of rates filed and posted pursuant to this section. (Ord. 1393 §1 (part), 2012).
