Dear Mr. Johnson: This acknowledges ,your letter of 17ebruary 17, 1071, con- cerning, the processing of applicant finrernrints for prosnective taxicab drivers in the city of San Luis Obispo. your concern is with the unusual delay which you state amounted to as much as ei7hty days in the processing of these documents. ^'here have been unusual delays which amounted to annroxinately that time: however, you will find that the present applicant fingerrrint cards received from Sheriffs' Offices and Police Departments are nrocessed on a rela- tively current basis. Since January of 19F7, the fingernrint input to this Pureau has reached unnrecedented levels. As a result of this and attendant factors such as budgetary restrictions and personnel deficiencies imposed on this I'ureau by the present administration end legislature, we have found that we have had to take steps to reduce finRernrint submissions from certain agencies in this state. m",Is reduction has been imposed in areas that we feelare not of a sensitive nature as opposed to our statutory resnonsihilities, such as the nrocecsing of law enforcement criminal arrest ftr!+ernrints and those suhriitted by regulatory agencies. Our nroblem In nrocessin- the current fiscal -ear'r work- load has been further complicated h.. a memorandum 'Issued. by the State Director of Finance on 11ovem1ter qn, 107n, announcing a "freeze" on hiring replacement personnel. -his action nullified an augmer- tation budget request which had been submitted and coupled with nreviously existing staffing shortages seriously impaired the abillt- of this Pureau to continue all of our functions. 0 • Mr. Harold Johnson -2- February 19, 1471 As I stated above, we are procession non -criminal finger- prints received from law enforcement agencies on a relatively cur- rent basis. However, depending upon the overallinnut, this varies from time to time. In order to maintain this current processing, we may possibly have to eliminate what we feel is less imnortart work in the near future. We fully understand and sympathize with you in this prob- lem and will do everything possible to maintain the current status, Non -criminal law enforcement agencv finmerrrints are it the hi -hest priority that can be assigned to this type of document, which directly follows that of a criminal nature and our statutory resnor,- sibilities to reP.ulatory agencies. eery truly yours, r. Ru a Chief off Au au A RP: gmk t CALIFORNIA C I T Y A T T 0 R N c _ 990 PALM STREET 543-8666 February 17, 1971 t w Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation P. O. Box 1859 Sacramento, California 95809- Gene .-men: It iws been brought to the attention of the City Council that the time lag between the :submittal of fingerprints to your department of prospective taxicab drivers in the City of San Luis Obispo and the actual receipt of the clearance from Sacramento sometimes amounts to as much as eighty days. Such a delay, apparently, results in a majority of the applicants finding other employment or leaving the area before the permanent permit is finally issued. According to the owners of the local taxi company when they recently appeared before the City Council, this has created a real hardship on the company in seeking to recruit qualified drivers. Our local ordinance requires each taxi driver to be fingerprinted so that we can confirm that they have had no prior felony convictions nor have they committed certain other designated offenses, in addition to other limitations. We have been reluctant to issue temporary local permits until we are assured that the fingerprints have been fully processed due to the public safety considerations present in this type of business. However, we are concerned about the difficulties faced by the local taxicab franchisee and would appreciate knowing whether there is any prospect that the processing time for permanent licens.•s may be reduced in the rear future either by establishing a priority system for apnliants whose permit is required before they can be gainfully employed or by improve - mants in the computerized methods to check your records for possible fraud or mis- representation by the applicant as to his prior criminal record. Your cooperation in filling us in on the status of your efforts to reduce the flow time on such fingerprint checks will be appreciated. In particular, it would be appreciated if you could recommend any steps which might be taken by our local taxicab franchisee, the Yellow Cab Com n 505 Higuera Street, San Luis Obispo, to reduce the processing time on app ications by their prospective employees. This inquiry was expressly requested by the City Council of San Luis Obispo. Very truly yours, c�T��•`�` Harold hnS0i City Attorney Hj:n)p c.c. Chici Rodgers EV ELL, J.

[On nAe-sees November 24, 1969 The Honorable City Council City Hall San Luis Obispo, California Re: City Ordinance Cab Driver Qualification Gentlemen: As you may know, J. H. Nichols and Lonnie Nichols are involved in negotiations for the pur- chase of the A 6 M Cab and Yellow Cab companies in San Luis ObispoAssuming approval of a transfer of the certificate of public convenience and necessity, the sale will be completed in December. This business transaction has brought to light a restriction in the San Luis Obispo City Ordinance preventing the City Council from exercising discretion with respect to the issuance of permits to cab drivers within the city. The City Ordinance, we understand, absolutely precludes persons who have been convicted of certain crimes from obtaining permits to drive cabs. The ordinance is obviously proper in intent when the public safety aspect of the taxicab business is considered. On the other hand, circumstances can arise where other- wise qualified persons may be precluded from driving even though their doing so would not endanger public safety. A specific example follows: A forty-one year old cab driver presently em- ployed in Ventura took an automobile in Illinois 22 years ago. As a nineteen year old serviceman late back to the base, his lack of judgment cotthe best of him. No other violation of law appears on the man's record and he has been employed as a cab driver in Ventura for seven years. City Council November 24, 1969 Page Two Re: Cab Driver Ordinance Is it conceivable that the man discussed above is not qualified? Certainly. Isn't it also, however, more probable that reasonable men, after investigating, would conclude that this man ought to be granted employ- ment? The Ventura County Board of Supervisors granted a permit under an ordinance which allowed those denied a permit under the basic provisions of the ordinance to appeal to the Board's discretion. The purpose of this letter is to bring your atten- tion to the limitations of the San Luis Obispo City Ordinance and request your consideration of an amendment allowing the City Council to exercise discretion in cases where the strict letter of the ordinance may preclude an otherwise qualified person from working as a cab driver. Your time and consideration of this matter are greatfully appreciated. Very truly yours, WM. BRUCE GAIR WBG/bb cc: Lonnie Nichols v d "\, a A v �y1 t Al _. C :"cK _.. 990 PALM r4, ,.q,.

Subsequent to the City Council establishing procedure for issuing permits to taxi drivers, a series of California Supreme Court rulings held that a municipalities' authority in the field of traffic regulation is limited to areas expressly authorized by State law or areas not governed by the State Vehicle Code. Since the State has established a thorough procedure for testing and licens- ing all drivers of vehicles within the State and has not delegated any authority to cities, I do not believe we can go beyond the restrictions presently estab- lished by our Ordinances. It is possible that the courts would hold the existing restrictions invalid. I would suggest that we continue enforcing existing restrictions because of the benefit to the citizens from the screening procedure. Very truly /yours, Jn� �CUL Wm. M.

Box 1351 San Luis Obispo, California January 29, 196E San Luis Obispo City Council City Hall 996 Palm Street San Luis Obisco, California Honorable Kayor and City Council Memembers; It has been brou,ht to my attention on many occasions that a cotential taxi customer will tele- phone for a cab and specify that a driver be sent who has not been "partaking of alcohol." ':a feel that this image of taxi cab drivers drinking while on duty is degenerating ti-e taxi. cab industry in our city and by the same token can hurt our business from a financial' stand joint as well. The law being such that a man can not be cited for drunk driving until he is calla*ht operating his vehicle in an erratic manner make:, it`possible for a taxi driver to con:.ume considerable alcohol before oeing cited. Between the time a driver starts drinking and the time he i,as drunk en ug1: to be stopied for im,ared driving his passengers can be exposed to many unpleasant factors as well as their salty being jeopardized. I feel the oni,y way to stop this situation completely, if it be the pleasure of the council, is to lass an ordinance to make it manditory that any taxi driver partaking of alcohol while on duty or before duty should .immediately have his taxi permit revoked. The following is a sug;estion of contents for such an ordinance: Any driver shall not go on duty if he has been partaking of or under the in£lae;ice of an alcohol beverage, intoxicating liquors or medicinal drugs. Driver while on duty shall not drink or be in the possession of any alcohol and shall not enter a bar or coc"tail parlor except for the puri,ose of annmmcin arrival to a _rosiective _assenger. I *eel that with the adoption of this law and strict enforcement of same would be a direr' brneiit to the city of San Luis Obispo, its residents and its taxi industry. I am enclosing for your interest copies of our drivers manuel. I refer yyou to ye.ge 22 paragraphs number 18 and 20. It is From this source that i have suggested the contents of the ordinance I am writing about. Thanking you for your consideration of thi> matter, I remain; Very truly yours, YELLOP CAB COMPANY Jack D. Hathaway Manager JDH:gw encl. (5) ti sssA;Sf . January lb, 1966 San Luis Obispo City Council City Hall, M Palm Street San Luis "bispo, California honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council: Approximately two years ago application was made by the Yellow Cab Company for a taxi stand on MontereyStreet in front of tue Anderson hotel. The traffic committee was avainst this location at the time and the traffic problems that would arise; therefore permission for the stand was Given for location on the Morro Street side of the Anderson !hotel. It was explained at this time that if a stand was ever put on Montere Street that the Yellow Cab Company would have first enoice of this location. We feel now that it only fair that if a stand is placed on Monterey Street in front of the Anderson notel that is be given to the Yellow Cab Company. Very truly yours, VEUN CAB COMRUY Jack D.

On March 3, 1965, the City Council by motion duly made and seconded, ordered the two taxi cab zones in front of the Greyhound Bus Station reversed with the A&M Cab Company having a stand directly in front of the Station and the Yellow Cab Company ahead of them between the theater building and the Bus Station. This change to take effect on March 10, 1965. 2. On June 7, 1965, the matter again was brought up by the Yellow Cab Company requesting that the stands be reversed. At that time the City Council took action by motion duly made and seconded, that the present cab stands be left as they are until the pending court litigation is settled or on the expiration of one year which ever is less. Motion carried. Respectfully, J. H. FITZPATRICK CITY CLERK JHF:lm fto its present condition. The City would have no assurance LKat the bridge would be repeirn the foreseeable future s£nc�he Cit)c�and the Railroad have not come tW agreement on the cons true do an therefore the bridge might remain closed indefinitely until such agreement is reached. City Engineer Romero stated that in his opinion temporary repairs to the bridge could be made for less than $3,000 and recommended that the Council C not permit the structure to be closed unless The structure is under repair. y Mayor Whelchel asked if the Southern Pa< is Company feels that the L� 5 existing' bridge would be safer if a liof three (3) tons were placed V on the br£d 11 I 19 Mr. English stated that no one could guarantee when the bridge would fail. He stated the condition of the/bridge is unsafe. D City Engineer Romero reco tided that the structure not be closed and the 3 Southern Pacific Compare make minimum repairs which could be made for considerably less thap,$3,000. � City Attorney Houser stated that the So hern Pacific Company should have a proposal ready for Council consideration. \Houser recommended that the Council allow .the closing of the bridge. \ On motion of Councilman Whelchel. seconded by Count an miller, that the matter be held over two (2) weeks and a limit of 6,000 pounds be placed on the bridge and the Southern Pacific Company be prepared to present a proposal for completion of the new bridge or repair the old one. Motion carried. City Attorney Houser stated that the City Engineer, upon inspection, finds ,the bridge unsafe, he should have the authorization to close it. 4. At this time the City Council held a public hearing on use and assignment of taxicab zone in front of the Greyhound Depot, 1009 Monterey Street. Mayor Whelchel explained the reason for the hearing. Mayor Whelchel declared the public hearing open. Lloyd Somogyi, Attorney for A & Cab Company, stated that his clients are satisfied with the existing situation and felt that it would be at least ten (10) months before this issue came before the Council again. Mr. Wendt, Attorney for Yellow Cab Company, reviewed the issue of the taxicab stand in front of the Greyhound which had been under the control of Yellow Cab Company since the early 1940's. He stated he felt that the action of the Council in changing the stands between Yellow Cab and A & M Cab is unfair, as he stated he did not feel that the Council has the right to change stands in order to help a competitor make more money. He stated that A & M Cab Company acquired their permit to operate with full knowledge that the Greyhound stand was used by the Yellow Cab Company. He also disagreed with the matter of putting the stand on a rotating yearly basis. Mr. Somogyi questioned the legal ownership of the Yellow Cab Company and further, stated that he believes that the ownership of the Yellow Cab Company is to question and that the people who are presently operating the company are not legally owners. Therefore, they cannot request a stand or anything else from the City as they are operating a cab company illegally. City Council Minutes June 7, 1965 Page -5- City Attorney Houser stated that charges of violation of the City Ordinances have been made by both cab companies which, if true, would authorize the City to cancel both company's certificates. That the Council had previously decided that since the issues raised by the respective cab companies were involved In the present court fight between the eompznies, the Council would not hold public hearings on the charges, but would await the outcome of the litigation. That the issues before the Council at this time were restricted to whether the taxi cab stands adjacent to the Greyhound Bus Station should be altered. Mr. Somogyi, after all was said, felt that the existing plan for the stand was satisfactory, but that he felt that the City cannot give any support to a company that does not legally exist in the City due to the fact that the insurance Is in the name of Helen Smith dba Yellow Cab Company, and that the Certificate of Necessity and Convenience is issued to J. E. Hathaway and Robert Chane. Mr. Wendt stated that there was no question as to ownership, but only the assignment of the cab stand. Councilman Blake stated that he felt that existing conditions were adequate and that the cab stand assignments are fair. Councilman Miller stated he objected originally on the switch of stands In front of the Greyhound Depot as A 6, M Cab Company was aware of the assignment of the stand to Yellow Cab when they went into business. Councilman Whelchel stated he would recommend that the stands remain as is and that at the end of one year, they again be switched giving each company one year at the stand. On motion of Councilman Blake, seconded by Councilman Spring that present markings be maintained until present court litigation is settled or on the expiration of one year, whichever is less. Motion carried, Councilman Miller voting no. 5. At this time the City Council held a public hearing on the recommendation of the .Planning Commission to approve planned development at 560 Hathway Avenue,,�or Mr. Chester Bishop. Planning DSreclor Chapman presented the Planning Co®ission's recommendation as follows: '\ "The Planning Commtisswri held two public hearings to consider the develop- ment of six additional three=b@droom units on the property at 560 Hathway Avenue. There were objections presented verbally and petitions in opposition to the rezoning presented at both hearings - one petition containing 38 names, the second petition containing 41 names most of which were duplicates of the earlier petition. The objection of the neighboring property owners was that this planned development rezoning is a continuation of the planned City Council Minutes March 3, 1965 Page -8- 56. Councilman Whelchel stated that he felt that the two taxi zones in front Of the bus station should be changed. On motion of Councilman Whelchel, seconded by Mayor Davidson that the taxi zones in front of [he bus station be reversed no later than March 10. 1965. lotion carried on the following roll call vote: AYES: Miss Margaret McNeil, H. L. Graves, Jr., Clell W. Whelchel, Clay P. Davidson NOES: Donald 7. Miller ABSENT: None On motion of Councilman Miller seconded b Councilwoman McNeil, the meeting adjourned.

It is our understanding that when A & M Cab Company was previously granted this particular stand it was for a limited time and after the expiration of a reasonable time, the stand would be returned to Yellow Cab Company.

Whelchel Chairman, Taxi Committee On July 20, 1965, officers Ward Jayne and Ira Halford conducted one of the periodic inspections of the A & M Cab Company and the Yellow Cab Company taxi cabs. In the course of the inspection it was found that the A & M cabs have a toggle switch installed which allows the driver to turn off the roof mounted light that signifies the cab is in service or occupied, without engaging the meter. This would allow the cab to travel any distance with the meter not oper- ating, even though the outward appearance would indicate the meter was registering the fare. Actually, the roof light should be controlled by the meter control arm or switch. It was also noted that the meters do not conform to City standards in that they do not automatically add a 25% rate increase for out of town fares. The Yellow Cab Company's roof light is controlled by the meter switch. However, it was noted that this light is inoperative when the radio is off. There appears to be some irregularity in these operational practices that are in conflict with the Council s Resolution No. 1360 (1964 Series), a copy of which is attached. Because of past experience with the two taxi cab companies, the Police Department would appreciate some guidance on the extent of compliance expected by the Council by the two companies. It appears some study and clarification of the mechanics of their meter and light operation is also in order.

Because of this, the identity of the YgjjQw Cab Company has been a matter of concern to me. I believe that a franchise has been issued by the City of San Luis Obispo to Yellow Cab Company, a co -partnership consisting of Jack Hathaway and Charles Chain. Investigation has revealed that the co- partnership was dissolved long ago and that Charles Chain departed from San Luis Obispo County. At a hearing before the Superior Court of San Luis Obispo County, Jack Hathaway testified under oath that he no longer owned any interest in the Yellow Cab Company and was merely an employee of that organization. A source of information which I cannot divulge, has informed me that the assets of the business, presently being operated in the City of San Luis Obispo under the name of Yellow Cab Company are owned by a corporation. The Municipal Code sets forth certain requirements with regard to financial responsibility and reputation as a condition pre- cedent to the issuance of a taxi cab franchise. It would seem that if the existing Yellow Cab Company is being operated by persons or entities other than that to whom the franchise was issued, the spirit of the Code is being violated, and the purpose of the legislation is being defeated. It is therefore requested that an investigation be made by the City to ascertain the identity of the existing owners and operators of that certain business being conducted under the name of Yellow Cab Company, and if there is a discrepancy between the record ownership and operation of the business, remedial action be taken by the City.

CALIFORNIA September 30, 1964 TO: City Council City of San Luis Obispo 990 Palm Street San Luis Obipso, California Taxi Cab Committee c/o Wm. M. Houser, Jr. City Attorney 990 Palm Street San Luis Obispo, California Gentlemen: Yesterday a copy of a memorandum regarding the proposed Taxi Cab ordinance was received by this office for the reason, I presume, that we are counsel for the Yellow Cab Company in a pending law suit. The memorandum not only asked for our comment on the use of meters but, also brought to our attention the City Council's action on a request by Mr. Jack Hathaway for revocation or sus— pension of a certificate of public necessity and convenience. As for comments on the proposed ordinance, we can only say that if the purpose of the ordinance is to prevent rate cutting, it can only fail in the end and will impose another financial obligation on the two competing firms which can ill afford this added expense. To illustrate, it will be a simple matter for a driver to use the meter in a manner that will allow a lower rate than required by the City Council. This is accomplished by not changing the posi— tion of the flag until after the fare has started toward destina— tion, or putting the flag in a position that meters a lower fare. Thus, the City Council will provide further opportunity for the unlawful practice of rate cutting. Passing on to the City Council's decision not to hold the requested hearing regarding the revocation or suspension of the certificate of public convenience and necessity heretofore granted to A & M Cab Cc., we feel that the Council was either ill advised or are openly favoring the one business to the substantial detriment of another. City Council Taxi Cab Committee September 30, 1964 Page Two This conclusion must be reached from a consideration of the Council's action in this matter. The San Luis Obispo Municipal Ordinance makes it mandatory for the Council to revoke or suspend certificates If taxi cabs are operated at a rate of fare other than that approved. Also, when a request to examine into alleged violations is denied on the excuse that the matter might possibly be disposed of by a court, the Council is failing to perform its duties to the people it serves. This is manifestly apparent when the issues before the Superior Court do not even include the problem asserted in Mr. Hathaway's request. In addition, even if such were before the court, the court has no jurisdiction or competency t0 decide such matters. Commenting further, Mr. Houser's letter indicates that both cer- tificates of the business concerned are in jeopardy. Yet no evidence has been produced before the Council at all. Thus the Council's conclusion is purely speculative and probably based, in part, on newspaper accounts. This not only renders a disservice to the people requesting a review of the problem and to the people who are accused, but also to the residents of this city. Continued inaction could well destroy the remaining public trans- portation facility available in San Luis Obispo. Therefore, a request is again made to the City Council to schedule an immediate hearing on the issue of "rate cutting" by the A & M Cab Company and if such is found to be true, request is made to revoke or suspend the certificate of public convenience and necessity issued to A &.M cab Company. Failure by the Council to honor this request will require an application to the Superior Court for an order compelling the Council to hold a hearing. Respectfully, ROBERT D.

The Taxi Committee would appreciate any comments or suggestions you have and any recommendations you may wish to make on the meter rates. As you are probably aware, the Council, at its September 21 meeting, unani- mously decided not to hold the requested hearing on the charges and counter charges of violation of the Municipal Code in view of the voluminous record being created in the Superior Court, but decided to require the installation of taximeters, reserving the right to take action on any violations after the Court proceedings have been completed. Some of the Council members feel that the Certificates of Convenience of both taxi cab companies are in jeopardy if the charges and counter charges are proved to be true. WMH:kd Enclosure Copies to: Honorable Mayor and City Council Richard D. Miller J. H. Fitzpatrick --- Wm. E. Schofield September 17, 1964 MEMORANDUM From: Wm. M. Houser, Jr., City Attorney To: Honorable Mayor and City Council The Text Cab Committee recommends that the Council set a date for hearing of the charges of rate cutting by the A & M Cab Company that have been made by a representative of the Yellow Cab Company. A letter from Mr. Hathway indicates that the Yellow Cab Company can prove in excess of 100 instances of rate cutting and claims that the practice con- tinues to exist. It would be advisable drat bah parties be given at least ten days prior notice to enable them to bring their counsel, witnesses and evidence to the hearing. kd • S'ame.Add .... and Tel,phooe No. of AnIn.,y(I) LLOYD E.

Neither of these men have experience in the taxicab business. They have employed Kr. Jerry Warren as manager. Mr. Warren is a former employee of the previous certificate holder and is familiar with tau operation, city policy, and city legal requirements for t his type of business. The operation of the business will be in his hands. Mir. Chain is described as a white, male, adult, 38 yrs. of age. His employment is as a Vice ?resident of the Mid State Hank, Arroyo Grande, Calif.

The committee discussed the following items: Alternate request of Yellow Cab Company for a downtown taxi stand. 2 Request of A & M Taxicab Company for a downtown parking stand. 3 Policy for number of taxicab stands for each franchise holder. RECOMMENDATIONS The Committee recommends char the first 12-minute parkin& meter zone north of Higue-a Street on the east side of Morro Street be changed to A taxicab -zone for the Yellow Cab company. The Committee rejected the slremate request for a taxicab zone on the north side of Higuere Street essr of Marro as said location was a no parking zone installed to facilitate right hand turning, off of Higuers onto Morro Street. 2 The rommittee recommends that the taxi stand requested by A 6 M Taxicab rompony be approved for installation when the new ordinance goes into efferr Said stand to be located on the north side of Higuera Street at the first parking space west of Morro Street intersection. 3 The committee recommends that the Council adopt as a matter of policy that each taxicab franchise holder be permitted two (2) taxicab stands for the number of taxis presently operated and that no additional taxi stands in the downtown area be considered until the applying franchise holder is operating eight (8) or more taxis.

Hathaway and Charles R. Chain, e co -partnership, dba Yellow Cab Company. Very truly yours, C. R. Chain CRC:j NOTICE OF APPLICATION FOR TRANSFER OF CERTIFICATE OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY FOR OPERATION OF TAXI CABS TO THE CITY CLERK: YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED pursuant to Section 6240. 11 of the San Luis Obispo Municipal Code, that WAYNE VAUGHN doing business as Consolidated Cab Company intends to transfer the Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity for the operation of taxi cabs and his taxi cab business to JACK D. HATHAWAY and CHARLES CHAIN, a co -partnership, and their corporate successor in interest, if any, upon the approval of the City Council after hearing pursuant to Section 6240. 11 of the San Luis Obispo Municipal Code. Dated: September 5 , 1963. 9 ME3 W.'DM Tot City Council Fron: Wm. E. Schofield, Chief of Pollee Dater July 15, 1963 Subjeott Tact Permit At the July 8, 1963 Council ]+acting I was directed to submit a report to you on July 15, 1963relative to try in.roaigation of a taxi applicant as spelled out in Section 690.4 of the San Luis Obispo Mtnioipal Code. ty report is as followet 1. The demand of the public for additional taxicab service. Panerous interriets with citizens, attached written atatements, complaints to the City Council and ay general observation indicates additional taxi- cab service in San Luis Obispo, it is not only desired, but warranted, 2e The adequacy of existing mass transportation and taxicab service. The City of San Luis Obispo is presently without nscs transportation and present taxicab service is not adequate. It would appear that if the six taxicabs now permitted by tho City were available and in proper operating condition the inadequacy would be alleviated. Recent inspections of lic- eased taxicabs have found them to be inadequately maintained and not serviceable as needed. 3. The financial responsibility and experience of the applicant. Financial statements of each applicant attached. The applicants appear !U) to eit`wr have available finances or adequate credit to support an effici- ent taxicab operation, With the exception of 1:r6 Ward Clay Kc➢raver, The applicants have no prior experience in operating a cab company. Ns. Pc9rayer has driven a taxi in Sting City in 1948 for little over one year, //74. The number, kind and type of equipment and the color aoheme to be used. The applicants prefer to subrdt this infornation through their attorney, lire WSlkeon Woolpart at the hearing on July 1$. 5. The effect whip`: such additional taxicab service may have upon trafne con- gestion and parking. The Police Department can foresee no additional traffic congestion problem as a result of adequate taxicab service. I could suggest, however, that a study be made by the Taxicab Committee of the Council on additional tad. cab standa at desirable locations. 6. Whother the additional taxicab service will result in a greater hazard to the public. Adequate taxicab service would be a safety factor to the public, and would appear not to create any additional hazard. I PERSONAL FINANCIAL STATEMENT O (DO N��O����T USE fll[ RUMNERI A.

Members of the Council: We hereby apply for a certificate of public convenience and necessity and for necessary taxicab permits pursuant to the San Luis Obispo municipal code, and state as follows: 1. Name and address of owner or person applying: John L. Axman and Ward C. McBrayer, to be doing business as a partnership with their business address being 1480 Monterey Street, San Luis Obispo, California, 2. We propose to operate four vehicles, 3. The numbers of each taxicab to be operated are 3, 13, 23, and 33. 4. The color scheme will be white roofs and blue bottoms. The insignia is to be A & M Cab, below which will be the telephone number, as yet not obtained. The trade style will be four -door sedans with customary cab lighting where appropriate. 5. Applicants believe that public convenience and necessity will be served by the granting of this permit so that an efficient taxicab service may be provided to the San Luis Obispo city area. Applicants believe that the past service has not been adequate or efficient and that they will be able to provide service which the Council and City will find to be efficient. 6. The proposed rates to be charged shall be those now being charged by the existing holder of a certificate as such rates were approved by the Council, with the understanding that if applicants determine the present system of zones is unfair and that another system of charg- ing would be more fair, then they will apply for a modi- fication of the schedule pursuant to the code. -1- City Council July 8, 1963 Page 2 We certify, under penalty of perjury, that the foregoing is true and correct.

Axman and Mr. Ward C. Mc Brayer, both of San Luis Obispo, are seriously inter- ested in operating a taxicab business pursuant to the City Charter and appropriate city ordinances. Our clients realize that there is an existing franchise and understand that the franchise holder has had problems in the past of which the Council is aware. Because of the nature of the problems, our clients do not wish to negotiate a purchase of the present franchise holder's rights but instead desire to apply independently for franchise rights. It is our intention to commence the preparation of the necessary papers required by the city ordinance. Since some detail is required and as there are obvious costs involved, we ask at this time that you be made aware of the interest of our clients. Should there be any presently known policy or reason why their application would not be considered, we will appreciate your advice so that unnecessary expenses may be avoided. Mr. Axman and Mr. McBrayer are both city residents, and presently are operators of the Hancock Service Station at California and Monterey streets.

To date the applicants, Mr. John Pollock and Mr. Wayne Vaughn, present owner -operator of the Yellow Cab Company, have not complied In full with the requests outlined in my letter to them. However, certain information has been supplied to indicate some basis upon which the City Council may decide to issue a new and addition- al taxi permit as spelled out under Section 6240.5 of the San Luis Obispo Municipal Code. The Code infers that following notice by the City, that the existing taxi operation is inadequate to fulfill the City's need, the existing cab owner has a right to comply with the City's request by supplying the service expected. It would appear that the City Council's determinations at this point would be: is the present service adequate as required by the demand; has the present operator been given proper notice under Section 6240.5 of the Municipal Code to improve the service; and can the City, under the ordinance, grant an ad- ditional or new permit without first holding a public hearing. It appears that Mr. Wayne Vaughn, who recently took over the almost defunct taxi service, "Yellow Cab Company," has made a diligent effort to improve the need by adding three additional taxis to bring his operation up to the licensed require- ments. It appears questionable at this time if additional cabs would be finan- cially feasible or would improve the service. It seems apparent that additional time is required to determine if in fact, the service will be adequate. The Police Department's investigation indicated that under Section 6240.4 of the Municipal Code, that: (1) the demand for additional taxi cab service is question- able; (2) past mass transportation and taxi service has been inadequate; (3) financial responsibility and experience of the applicant seems to indicate that the applicant has sufficient acceptable business experience but his financial Mr. Richard D. Miller Page 2 August 6, 1962 position may create problems in establishing a new business, particularly a taxi cab operation; (4) the new applicant's proposed equipment is uncertain at this time; (5) it would appear that adequate taxi service within the City would aid in traffic congestion and parking problems; (6) an additional or adequate taxi cab operation may reduce the traffic hazard to the public; and (7) future taxi cab operation should assure the patronizing public of more convenience and quicker service. In conclusion, the Police Department's investigation seems to indicate that the City Council should allow additional time to evaluate the present taxi cab service before issuing additional taxi cab permits or a new permit.

(SEAL) GREEN BUS SERVICE 1331 Archer Street San Luis Obisopo, California August 3, 1962 City of San Luis Obispo William E. Schofield, Chief of Police 738 Pismo Street San Luis Obispo, California Dear Chief Schofield: In answer to your letter of June 22, 1962, I wish to submit the following information for your report to the City Council. As you know, I reassumed control of Consolidated Cab Company June 16, 19620 and the company was not up to my standard of operation. Since this time, I have purchased three more behicles which gives me a total of six licensed taxicabs with the city. I am presently operating five care during the daylight hours and three cars at night, which is more than adequate for present passenger travel. I have set up a preventative main- tenance program and have an adequately equipped shop to maintain the cars. I now have a full-time mechanic and mechanic's helper in the shop and plan to employ another mechanic at night next month. My financial situation has been relieved through the assistance of Mr. Dennis Ahearn and Mr. Richard Holm- quist of this city. At the present time these two gentleman are negotiating with me a sale of Consolidated Cab Company, Green Bus Service, Avis Pent -A -Car, and the Green Bus Garage. I feel assured that as soon as our audit is completed and a settlement is reached with Mr. Charles Hushbeck, this sale can be consummated. Mr. Ahearn and Mr. Holmquist have plans to expand the taxi and bus service for the city. I will remain a manager for this company as long as they desire my services. Partial payments are being made on all in- debtedness and I feel that with the capital that Mr. Ahearn and Mr. Holmquist plan to bring into the business, there will he no more financial problems. r Chief Schofield: Due to the fact that I have only one taxi stand located in front of the Greyhound Bus Depot, if you and the City Council would grant me an additional stand closer to the center of town, taxicabs would be more readily available for the downtown patrons. I suggest an additional stand in front of the Rexall Drug Store, which has been approved by the Rexall Company. This company,I am confident, will provide adequate taxi and bus service to the city. I can prove to you, if so desired, that a two or three car fleet of taxicabs cannot financially exist in the city of San Luis Obispo. If more information is desired, I will be glad to provide same. Yours truly, GREEN BUS SERVICF. Wayne Va hn, Gwner WV/jv August 1, 1962 City Council San Luis Obispo, California Gentlemen: In your consideration of granting another certificate of public convenience and necessity to a competing taxi company; please be advised. The name of the cab company ev will be "* and 4ITaxi": The coloring of the taxis will be red and white: red from top to the bottom of the windows, the remainder of the taxi in white. The insignia of the cab company IS red lettering on the two front doors in dimensions in accordance with the provisions of the taxi ordinance, City of San Luis Obispo. You will find attached a proposed budget in percentage for the first operating year. ",\Sinc*re5p n oc : F Ai�,9—L. �ge r.LF: de r� CITY C POLICE DEPARTMENT Mr. d'_chard D.

Mr. Thompson atated that Mr. Pollock had a goo recors, with his ccnpany but returned to the F1smo Eaach / San Luia Obispo area. The Yellow Cab Company of Santa Maria, California, was subsequently sold by Mr. Thompson to a Mr. Eves Ltheridge, present operator, and havin- certain interest in the Tom and Cointry Cab Company of Santa Maria, California, yointly with Irvin Larson. During the inter l ev with Mr. Pollock and Mr. Etheridge, it vas developed that Mr. Etheridge would provide the financial assistance needed by Mr. Pollock, to establish a taxi cab operation in the City of San Luis Obispo, -California. It appears anparent that by agreenent between Mr. Pollock and Mr. Etheridge, that s number of taxi cabs from the present, operation in San'.- Maria, Calirornia, . uld be transferred to the now operation in San Luis Obispo, Calif orni a. In,eatigation of Mr. Wayne Vaughn and the Yellow Gab Company, Consolidated Cab Company, Green Rus Service, revealed that Mr. Vaughn recently carte back into the company's operation,. and that the taxi operation was almost to a standstill (one taxi cab in operation and invalid insurance coverage). Since the initial check, Mr. Vwtphn tee b=en able to place five taxi cabs into operation (see inspection slip attached). :ie has made application for adequato insaran,•e coverage req,tred and4er the Minicipla Code Section 62110.25, and is atteaotine to set his business arfairs in order for an audit. The 3an Luis Uhispo Ormty &ecorder's Office was checked in an attempt to ascertain any record of leans being filed against Wayne 7aughn, et al. A total of 336,952.l6 in loins, attachments, and ,udgementa have been filed since U.:tober of 1959. A breakdown of the agen¢:es and individiul.s, including 1a•--.3 andasount3 of these records, are attached to this rej�rt. It is the opinion of the Cniof of Poli'e that the past taxi cab service in San Lals Obispo, Californla, has been inadequate a.nd vas sub -standard egeipmentj that an aid'.t'Onal t"I c0 sorvice may improve the situation if properly financed and .operated. 8owev :-r, additional problems could arise if any new operation is im- Properly started.
