Title
An ordinance relating to procedures for issuing public passenger vehicle permits.
Sections
100-50-9-a rc
100-50-9.5 rp
Analysis
This ordinance provides that a public passenger vehicle permit may be issued by the city clerk if, following investigation, the chief of police files no written report summarizing the arrests and convictions to the applicant.
In addition, the ordinance repeals provisions that would allow an applicant to appeal the decision to deny a limousine permit based upon failure of the vehicle make and model to appear on a list approved by the common council. The approved vehicle list was eliminated upon passage of common council file number 070628, and the appeal provisions are now obsolete.
Body
The Mayor and Common Council of the City of Milwaukee do ordain as follows:
Part 1. Section 100-50-9-a of the code is repealed and recreated to read:
100-50. Public Passenger Vehicle Permits.
