The council held the first reading of ordinance 25-021 to grant a six-month taxicab franchise to Shelly Reineck, DBA GT Cab Company, and authorized the mayor and safety-service director to sign a franchise and license agreement; final passage is scheduled for the next council meeting.
The Norwalk City Council conducted the first reading of ordinance 25-021, which would grant a taxicab franchise to Shelly Reineck doing business as GT Cab Company and authorize the mayor and the safety-service director to execute a franchise-and-license agreement.
Clerk read the ordinance text into the record at the council’s request. The ordinance, as presented, calls for an initial franchise term of six months from the ordinance’s effective date with renewal authority as set in Chapter 7.21 of the Norwalk Codified Ordinances. Council members moved and seconded the request to have the clerk read the ordinance; the clerk read the text into the record and council scheduled the second reading and vote for the meeting in two weeks.
The ordinance language in the transcript contained transcription errors referencing other municipalities; the council record shows the franchise is proposed specifically for operation within the City of Norwalk and cites Chapter 7.21 of the Norwalk codified ordinances as the local authority for taxicab franchises. No final vote was taken at this meeting; council will consider passage at the next scheduled meeting.
