No vehicle may be used to provide transportation-for-hire services within the city limits without complying with the vehicle standards required under this chapter.
In its annual operating authority permit application, an operating authority must attest to the city secretary that every vehicle performing transportation-for-hire services under its operating authority permit:
An operating authority commits an offense if it falsely certifies, requests another to falsely certify, or intentionally causes another to falsely certify that a vehicle performing transportation-for-hire services under its operation authority permit meets the standards in subsection (a).
