BACKGROUND:
 
In 2008, the City Council approved clean air vehicle standards for taxicabs operating within the City. The attached Ordinance will replace the City's existing clean air vehicle standards with more environmentally progressive standards.
 
On November 5, 2014, after the City Attorney read the title, the City Council introduced Ordinance No. 14-0020 for first reading by a 5-0 vote.  The Ordinance is on the agenda for second reading and adoption.
 
CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends that the City Council waive further reading and adopt Ordinance No. 14-0020 to amend the City's clean air requirements for vehicles for hire operating under City franchises.
