[Amended 2-23-2015 by L.L. No. 1-2015, effective 3-12-2015]
Every driver of a taxicab or livery, as defined in Article 1
of the New York Vehicle and Traffic Law, who solicits business within
the corporate limits of the Village must possess a valid Westchester
County Taxi and Limousine Commission taxi driver's license, and
must comply with the rules, regulations and requirements of the Westchester
County Taxi and Limousine Commission in order to be allowed to drive
a taxicab or limousine within the Village of Mamaroneck. Any driver
holding a valid Village of Mamaroneck taxi driver's license on
the date of adoption of this amendment to the Code may continue to
drive a taxicab or livery under such valid taxi driver's license
until such Village license expires.
If, for any reason, a driver licensed under this chapter loses
his or her Westchester County Taxi and Limousine Commission taxi or
limousine driver's license, he or she shall be ineligible to
drive a taxicab or livery in the Village until he or she can obtain
a new license or authorization from the Westchester County Taxi and
Limousine Commission.
Drivers shall maintain a valid taxi driver's license from
the Westchester County Taxi and Limousine Commission and shall obtain
such new license from the Westchester County Taxi and Limousine Commission
before their current Village of Mamaroneck taxi driver's license
expires.
All taxi or limousine drivers shall display valid Westchester
County Taxi and Limousine Commission driver's licenses within
the for-hire vehicle they are driving in a conspicuous place that
can be seen by all passengers when the vehicle is in use. A clear
duplication of the original license shall not be sufficient to comply
with this provision. The taxicab number shall also be similarly displayed
inside the vehicle.
