APPLICATION TO OPERATE A TAD(ICAB - Continued Mr. William Dawes, 500 West Third, stated that taxicab driving was his present means of livelihood and that one of the violations on his record would be over two years old the following month which would leave five until the following year. Councilman Evans stated that he would, support a motion to re-issue the driver's permit, however, he expressed concern over repeated failure of applicants to list all of their violations on their applications for permit to operate a taxicab. Pie suggested that perhaps the appli- cation form needed revision to impress upon the applicant the importance of proper completion. Councilman Villa stated that he believed that it was common for people to forget violations they had received during the previous three-year period; and that a person who makes his living as a driver is exposed to more opportunity for citation. Councilman Yamamoto stated that he could not go along with a person forgetting what citations he had received. Councilman Patterson stated that he felt that all violations should be listed by the applicant. Mayor Griset stated that he would not want to stake his reputation on remembering the exact number of citations he had received in the last two years. Comuc~lman Patterson' s motion to overrule the action of the Police Chief and instruct him to re-issue to William Dawes his permit to operate a taxicab, subject to revocation if additional moving violations are incurred within a subsequent two-year period, was seconded by Councilman Markel and carried on the following roll call vote: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Patterson, Markel, Villa, Evans, Herrin, Griset Y arnamoto None RECESS all Councilmen present.
