INTRODUCTION:
The City Council is asked to consider the renewal of taxicab licenses for 2013.
BACKGROUND:
The City has received applications for the renewal of taxicab licenses from the following license holders:
Timothy R. Dressen Jr. dba TNT Tax (3 vehicles)
Randy Busch dba Southwest Metro Transportation (5 vehicles)
Bradford Transportation, Inc. dba Shakopee Taxi (2 vehicles)
Getahun Haile dba Twin Cities Taxi (1 vehicle)
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.
I have checked with the Police Department and they advised me that they are unaware of any reason
that the licenses should not be renewed.
(Pursuant to the City Code, the City Clerk will be issuing the taxicab driver's licenses to qualifying
applicants upon their compliance with the requirements for obtaining such a license.)
