A. The transportation inspector shall accept and report to the commission complaints against a chauffeur of a regulated vehicle or against the condition of a regulated vehicle. A complainant’s identification will not be kept confidential unless the complaint is otherwise made confidential by law. Absent additional evidence, an anonymous complaint is insufficient grounds to issue a civil or criminal citation or penalty.

B. All regulated vehicles shall have posted an approved notice of the telephone numbers required for the filing of complaints with the commission and the number of the vehicle utilizing the permit shall be prominently displayed in a manner, size, and location designated by the transportation inspector.

C. The transportation inspector may utilize citation and conviction findings in the annual review process to determine whether the renewal of an individual permittee’s permit to operate remains in the continued public interest and welfare. [Ord. 21-21 § 2, 2021; Ord. 01-02 § 3. Formerly 5.20.055.]
