It shall be unlawful for the operator of any taxicab or vehicle for hire to stand or park the same upon any public street, other public place or on any private property within the City of Carson while awaiting employment except in spaces or stands set apart for that purpose; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent any taxicab or vehicle for hire from parking on private property if the owner of the private property gives permission in writing, and a copy of such written permission is filed with the City Administrator, provided further, that nothing contained herein shall prevent any taxicab or vehicle for hire from parking in spaces legally available for other passenger vehicles or on any private property when said taxicab or vehicle for hire is out of service and the driver is not soliciting.
(Ord. 50 § 6557)
Jurisdiction to issue permits for taxicab stands or places shall be vested in the City Council. All permits shall be revocable at the pleasure of the City Council and all applications therefor shall be referred to the City Traffic Engineer for his recommendation. The City Council shall not grant a taxicab stand permit without taking into consideration the need for such stand by the applicant and the convenience of the general public and shall not grant such stand where it would tend to create a traffic hazard. Such permits shall not be transferable.
(Ord. 50 § 6558)
For each permit for a taxicab stand or parking space or place upon any public street or other public place, the owner of the taxicab company using said space shall pay to the City of Carson an annual fee of $5.00.
(Ord. 50 § 6559)
