Summary TEU: Defer DEFER Council Member Tommy Hazouri requested an update on the
status of this item on the agenda. Council Vice President John Crescimbeni explained that
this measure was given a lengthy review by a special committee chaired by
Council Member Matt Schellenberg. In
the course of the committee’s deliberations there were some agreements,, some partial agreements and some disagreements. There was the expectation that Tallahassee
would take some action and enact legislation to address the issues that the
committee mulled over. The Legislature
did not act. Ultimately, the special
committee reported back to the City Council with no recommendations. Mr. Crescimbeni indicated that he is currently crafting
legislation; his approach is to have one ordinance for each different
issue. He anticipates five to six
bills that he will be introducing in January. Council Member Greg Anderson said that it was imperative
for the State Legislature to act to make standards for vehicles for hire
consistent throughout the State. We
cannot have different standards for all Counties; there has to be
consistency. This is a safety issue;
passengers have to feel safe in the vehicles. |
