Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: Lori Hensen, Deputy City Clerk
DATE: 12/17/2013
SUBJECT: 2014 Taxicab Business License Renewals (F)
Action Sought
Approve the applications and grant Taxicab Business Licenses for 2014.
Background
The City has received applications for the renewal of taxicab business licenses from the following
license holders:
Timothy R. Dressen Jr. dba TNT Taxi (3 vehicles)
Bradford Transportation, Inc. dba Shakopee Taxi (2 vehicles)
The applications are in order and the evidence of insurance is being worked on. We will not
deliver the licenses until all required items are received.
Southwest Metro Transportation has been purchased by LaTour Transportation LLC. They have
submitted an application and a background investigation is being processed. When they have
been cleared by the police department, their license will be brought to council for approval.
Also Getahun Haile dba Twin Cities Taxi will be renewing his license when he returns to the
country in March. Staff will bring that to council for approval at that time.
I have checked with the Police Department and they advise me that they are unaware of any
reason that the licenses should not be renewed.

Approve the applications and grant a Taxicab Business License to:
Timothy R. Dressen Jr. dba TNT Taxi, 1529 West 6th Avenue, Shakopee, for 3 vehicles;
Bradford Transportation, Inc. dba Shakopee Taxi, 882 Providence Drive, Shakopee, for 2
