He stated that he spoke with other taxi drivers and they don't have complaint forms either. Ald. Borkowski stated he is concerned about how the applicant is able to communicate with customers. He added that he doesn't want to deny a person a livelihood, but the applicant is the first impression for visitors to the city and some command of the English language is needed even to use Google.
