§ 94-45. Same—Stand permits.

Vehicles operated under the terms of this article shall be known as "public service vehicles" and permits may be issued to the grantee allowing any such vehicles while awaiting employment to stand at certain designated places upon the streets of the city. Additional locations may be granted by the city council, acting by and through its delegated agents, upon proper application being filed, and the issuance of such permits shall remain in the absolute discretion of the city council, which shall determine the public interest in the establishment of such stands, as petitioned for, as well as the number of vehicles which shall be authorized to occupy the same at any one time, together with such other reasonable regulations thereof as it may determine proper, which regulation shall require the operator of each such vehicle to remain in his vehicle in the proper driver's position while occupying such stand, and no such stand shall ever be used so as to interfere with proper ingress and egress to abutting private property. The stands hereby authorized are subject to the control of the police department and subject to change at the will of the city council. Each of such stands shall be marked and properly designated under the supervision of the chief of police, and insofar as it is practicable shall be located by the police department so as to permit the use of present established loading or unloading zones by public service vehicles as described herein.
