Surf Cab's request for a certificate of public convenience and associated taxi permit is u p
for discussion at the next city council meeting . I would like to raise some issues for
consideration before the final approval is,granted .
1.Two of the three taxi providers are out of town vendors receiving calls on cel l
phones .
2.Why would another out of town provider be necessary ?
3.Can these out of town vendors reliably provide 24 hour coverage ?
4.Considering the economy, is another vendor really necessary or will it simpl y
serve to dilute the revenue between all providers and risk the quality of servic e
they all can provide .
5.234 Taxi has not put into service the 10 additional permits they were granted six
months ago . This would seem to indicate that granting another 5 permits to ye t
another vendor might not be warranted .
6.Green Go has a suspended permit that is up for renewal in March . There seems t o
be the likelihood that it will be permanently revoked . Why not issue that permit t o
Surf Cab on a trial basis .
7.As a point of clarification the per mile charge for 234 Taxi is $3 .50 not the $3 .0 0
indicated in Table 2 of document PH 3 .
It is been a pleasure serving the community San Luis Obispo and I look forward to a lon g
and mutually beneficial relationship well into the future .
