SUBJECT: STATUS OF HAWAII COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
TO: ALL CONCERNED
During the regular quarterly meeting of the commission on
December 5, 1996 at Waimea, Hawaii, the following actions were
taken to implement the necessary changes to improve the
licensing of TAXICABS within the County of Hawaii:
1. Cease to issue any further licenses and/or transfer
of present licenses.
2. Divide Hawaii County into an EAST HAWAII (NAALEHU TO
MUD LANE/LAKELAND SUBDIVISION) and WEST HAWAII (WEST OF
MUD LAND/LAKELAND SUB-DIVISION TO HAWAIIAN OCEAN VIEW
ESTATES) as taxicab association districts with each
association having a designated representative.
3. Hold all future meetings of the Hawaii County
Transportation Commission in KAMUELA, to ease the burden
of transportation for all persons wishing to attend the
commission meetings
4. Hire two (2) licensed private investigators, one (1)
for each area as mentioned above and reporting directly to
the HAWAII COUN^_'Y TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION. They will be
paid out of the fund generated by 'the collection of annual
taxi cab fees.
5. Update Chapter 18-HAWAII COUNTY CODE. There are too
many amendments and/or changes.
6. Update ALL forms, dates, page numbers and identify
exhibits.
7. Do not accept improperly filled out applications and
have a set of instructions issued with EVERY application
packet.
8. Reduce the number of members serving on the commission
from ten to seven, and/ or five, with a quorem of five,
and/or three.
9. Do not have a set meeting date. Meetings are at the
call of the chairperson, whomever it might be.
10. If there is not enough support to make these changes
and bring the commission into line with modern business
practices, for efficient operations and enforcement, so as
to enhance our taxicab industry into a proud and
prosperous group of people presenting a united front to
their customers at all times. The rules, regulations and
/or other directives have not been updated since 1990.
11. Otherwise abolish the COMMISSION!
