§ 11.20.016. Taxicab permit types.
A.
The following taxicab permit types exist:
1.
Transferable general taxicab permits originally issued prior to February 22, 1994;
2.
Non-transferable taxicab permits issued pursuant to AMC 11.20.037;
3.
Wheelchair-accessible taxicab permits issued pursuant to section 11.20.037F; and
4.
Accessible fleet permits issued pursuant to section 11.20.036.
B.
Prior to September 1, 2020, the owner of a transferable taxicab permit described in subsection A.1. may apply with the transportation inspector for a certificate of ownership. The certificate of ownership shall exempt the holder from the requirements of section 11.20.037 to be an operator and drive the permittee's taxicab for a minimum number of hours per year. A certificate of ownership is non-transferable. The intent of a certificate of ownership is to allow a current holder of a transferable permit to continue to own and operate the permitted taxicab regardless of qualifications to be an owner/operator and prevent the revocation of the permit on that basis.
