BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE COUNTY OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. :section lOC of Chapter 5, Article 3 of the Hawaii
County Code is amended to read as follows:
"C. If the ainnual count of population permits an increase
in the number of taxicabs, the Director of Finance shall award
the additional taxicab certificates of public convenience and
necessity to intes~ested and qualified adult applicants by public
drawing. If the population count is lower than the previous
year, the maximum number of taxicabs allowed will be adjusted
'but those already licensed will be permitted to continue operating
unless cancelled or revoked.
The Director of Finance shall publish a notice not less than
two times on two separate days in a newspaper of general circu-
lation within the County of Hawaii. The notice shall inform the
public of the number of taxicabs that will 'be available, the
date and time when. applications for certificates of public conve-
nience and necessity are due to 'be turned in to the Director of
Finance, and the date and time of the public drawing to determine
the new grantee(s) of certificate(s) of convenience. All persons
shall be entitled to have their names submitted for public drawing
on an application form prepared 'by the Director of Finance or a
reasonable facsimile thereof. Each application shall be for only
one taxicab certificate. A person may apply for any number of
taxicab certificates up to the total number available for drawing.
The number of alternate names that the Director of Finance
may draw may be more than the number of taxicab certificates
available for issuance. The applicant whose name is drawn
first shall 'be awarded the certificate of public convenience
and necessity and the right to operate a taxicab, provided he
is qualified to do so. If the applicant is found to be unquali-
fied to be awarded the certificate, the Director may award said
certificate to the other applicants whose names were chosen at
the drawing in the order that the names were drawn.
Any applicant whose name is drawn, to be awarded a certi-
ficate of public convenience and necessity, must qualify and
operate the taxicab within sixty (60) days after having had his
name drawn. Failure to do so will result in the forfeiture of
the right to be awarded the certificate. A taxicab certificate
awarded according to these drawing procedures shall not be
transferred or leased during the first year after the date of
the certificate. The Commission may, after hearing, suspend,
revoke or modify a certificate that has been transferred or
leased. to another person during this first year.
