DIVISION 2. - TAXICABS
Sec. 22-301. - Rates.
The maximum fares and charges for the use of taxicabs shall be determined by resolution of the city
council at a regular meeting. All taxicab licensees shall be notified of any such hearing by mail. The term
"waiting time," as used in any schedule of maximum rates and charges, shall include the time when the
taxicab is not in motion, beginning with the arrival at the place to which it has been called, or the time
consumed while standing at the direction of any passenger, but shall not include time lost because of
inefficiency of the taxicab or its operator, or time consumed by premature responses to a call or by traffic
delays.
(Code 1973, § 43-14)
Sec. 22-302. - License—Required.
No person shall engage in the business of operating or causing to be operated, any taxicab upon the
streets, alleys or public ways of the city without first having obtained a license for each such taxicab.
Picking up passengers within the city shall be deemed engaging in the taxicab business, but discharging
passengers in the city when the trip originated from a point outside the city, shall not be so construed.
(Code 1973, § 43-20)
Sec. 22-303. - Same—Certification; approval.
No license shall be granted under the provisions of this division except upon certification of the
director of public safety and upon approval of the city council.
(Code 1973, § 43-21)
Sec. 22-304. - Taximeters.
(a) No license shall be issued until a taximeter has been installed in the taxicab to be licensed and such
taximeter has been inspected to verify that:
(1) Proof is provided of the meter's annual calibration and sealing; and
(2) The case thereof is sealed and the cover and gear thereof are intact.
(b) A service fee as determined by the city council from time to time shall be charged for each
inspection.
(c) No person shall remove or tamper with the seal of any taximeter. No person shall engage in
business with any taxicab when the taximeter affixed thereto is not in proper working order or the
seal of the taximeter is broken or has been tampered with.
(d) Every taximeter shall be so affixed that the amount of the fare is plainly visible to the passengers,
and, after sundown, such taximeter shall be clearly illuminated. Upon any rate change made
pursuant to this article, every taximeter shall be reinspected and tested and approved. No such rate
change shall be effective as to any taxicab until approval and resealing of the taximeter of such
taxicab by the director of public safety.
(Code 1973, § 43-22)
Sec. 22-305. - Consideration of council of public necessity and convenience upon application for license.
Upon application made for any new taxicab license, as distinguished from any renewal thereof, the
city council shall first consider the question of whether public convenience and necessity require the
operation of such taxicab. The council shall consider the number of taxicabs operating in the city and
whether the demands of the public require additional taxicab service; traffic conditions on the streets of
the city and whether the additional taxicab service will result in a greater hazard to the public and such
Page 2
other relative facts as the council may deem advisable. The judgment of the council on the question of
public necessity and convenience shall be conclusive.
(Code 1973, § 43-23)
Sec. 22-306. - Insurance.

indemnity for the insured, including Michigan no-fault coverage, in the amounts specified in this
section and agreeing to pay, within the limits of the amounts on behalf of the insured, all sums which
the insured shall become obligated to pay by reason of the liability imposed upon the insured by law,
for damages because of bodily injury, including death, at any time resulting therefrom, or for
damages to property, or both, sustained by any person other than the employees of the insured and
caused by accident and arising out of the ownership, maintenance or use of the licensed taxicab.
(b) The minimum amount of the insurance coverage as to any one licensed taxicab shall be:
(1) Not less than $300,000.00 per occurrence, combined single limit, for bodily injury and property
damage; or
(2) On account of injury to, or death of, any person in any one accident .....$100,000.00;
