No permit shall be granted under this Chapter, except after a hearing thereon conducted
under and in accordance with such rules and regulations as may from time to time be
prescribed therefor by the City Council, nor until the City Council has determined
that the public convenience and necessity require the operation proposed by the applicant
for the permit. The City Council in determining whether or not such facts exist, shall
take into consideration the public demand for the service, the adequacy or inadequacy
of service being rendered by other persons, the effect of the service upon traffic,
the financial responsibility of the applicant, the character of equipment proposed
to be furnished, and any and all other facts which the City Council may deem relevant.
Before granting any such permit, the City Council shall require the City Manager or
his designee to present, either orally or in writing, a report, together with his
opinion, as to the existence of public convenience and necessity for the operation
of the pedicabs. However, the burden of establishing the existence of public convenience
and necessity shall always be borne by the applicant for a permit, and no such permit
shall be issued unless there has been an affirmative showing of the existence of such
public convenience and necessity by the applicant.
