No person shall engage in the occupation of driving a taxicab within the Town without first having obtained a permit from the Danville Police Department. (Ord. #15, §1[4])

An applicant for a taxicab driver’s permit shall submit his application, under oath, to the Danville Police Department. The application shall include:

• b. The criminal record, if any, of the applicant;

• c. Fingerprints and photograph of the applicant;

• d. Any other information required by the Police Department.

• e. An application fee of one ($1.00) dollar.

• (Ord. #15, §1[4])

The Danville Police Department shall investigate the application and may deny the permit if the applicant has been convicted of any felony or of a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude or violation of alcoholic beverage control laws. In all other cases the Danville Police Department shall issue the permit, which the applicant shall conspicuously display in his taxicab. The permit shall expire one (1) year after date of issuance and may be renewed upon application and payment of the one ($1.00) dollar fee. Renewal may be denied on the grounds stated in this section for denial of an original application. (Ord. #15, §1[4])

This section shall not apply to any taxicab driver holding a current active permit under an ordinance of any county or any other city, which ordinance provides for the denial of the drivers’ permits on account of the criminal record of the applicant. (Ord. #15, §1[4])
