Hot Springs staff to ask board to amend pedicab franchise rates from $2 to $5 per person
Summary
City staff will present a proposed amendment to the nonexclusive franchise agreement for JJ Pedicabs to raise the per-person charge from $2 to $5 per three-city-block increment; the full agreement expires at year-end and the operator requested the change be effective immediately.
Harmony, a city staff member, told the Hot Springs Board of Directors during an agenda review that Jason Bennett, doing business as JJ Pedicabs, has operated under a nonexclusive franchise agreement since 2016 and asked the city to amend his operator rate schedule from $2 per person per three city blocks to $5 per person per three city blocks. Harmony said the current franchise rate “has not increased since 2016.”
