§ 121.09. LICENSING OF TAXICAB DRIVERS.

Prior to the commencement of operation under this chapter, the holder of a certificate must furnish to the city the names of all persons who will be operating taxicabs for the certificate holder. Each of such persons must be the holder of a valid chauffeur's license issued by the State of Minnesota. The Police Department must conduct an investigation of each such person and a report of such investigation must be furnished to the Council, together with the recommendation of the Chief of Police as to whether or not such persons should be permitted to operate taxicabs within the city. Upon a finding by the Council that such persons are to be permitted to operate taxicabs within the city, the Licensing Division must issue a taxicab driver's license to such persons upon the payment by them of the required license fee. The license is valid for the calendar year in which issued and must be renewed at the commencement of each subsequent calendar year. It is unlawful for any person to operate a taxicab within the City of Brooklyn Park for or on behalf of any certificate holder without having a valid taxicab driver's license in the person's possession.
