No person shall operate any taxicab without a valid city taxicab vehicle permit issued
for the vehicle and displayed in a manner prescribed by the director, in every taxicab
being operated on the streets of the city pursuant to the authority of this code.
Such vehicle permit shall be required for the operation of any taxicab for which passengers
are solicited within the city limits by any means, including but not limited to direct
solicitation of passengers by words or actions, occupying taxicab stands or zones,
and for every taxicab providing transportation within the city for hire. At the option
of the permit holder, a taxicab for which a taxicab permit has been issued can be
operated as a livery vehicle if, during such operation, a sign is displayed on both
the front and back of the right-hand sun visor stating in characters at least two
inches high: "NOT IN TAXICAB SERVICE." A taxicab used as a livery vehicle shall be
for hire at a charge fixed by written agreement at a minimum of 24 hours in advance
of the trip which shall entitle the party to the exclusive use of the vehicle for
the individual or group during the agreed term of the hiring or for transportation
to the specified destination, whichever the case may be.
