Zones." On the attached map I
have drawn concentric circles in-
dicating the distance in miles from
8h and Main. Also using Ordinance
33-57 and the request of the peti.
tioners, I have drawn the bound-
aries of Zone 1, 2 and 3. It should
be noted that JFK Road, Kaufmann
(between Kennedy and Carter) and
Carter (between Kaufmann and
32nd) are within Zone 2.
It also should be noted that Zone
1 is about 1 % to 2 miles wide,
Zone 2 is about a mile wide and
Zone 3 is less than a mile. Thus
the distances within Zones are least
in Zone 3 and greatest in Zone 1.
B. The Black and White Com-
pany has petitioned for the follow-
ing rates'

passengers ( not

tion ........................ .70

excess of 10 min-
utes ,....,..................$4.50 per hour
C. Refer to Table II "Taxicab
Rates-Selected Cities" and Table ITI,
"Comparative Estimated Taxicab
Rates." From these tables it would
appear that:
1. The requested rates are some-
what less than those charged
in various other cities.
D. General Observation:
1. Officials of the Black and
White Cab Company have informed
me that taxi drivers work on a
commission basis, receiVing 45% of
the collected revenue. A full time
"hard working" driver will earn
$5,000-$6,000 per year. Customer
tips average about $2.00 per day.

Black & White Cab Company-
13 Cabs
Veterans Radio Cab Company-
8 Cabs
Since the ordinance was passed
the Black and White Cab Company
has purchased the Veterans Radio
Cab Company and has made use of
the number of licenses authorized
the Veteran's Company.
B. Further, Section 6 of the ordi-
nance provides that the City Man-
ager with the approval of the Coun-
cil may increase the number of
vehicles authorized under a taxicab
operators permit.
C. Refer to Table 1, "Dubuque
Taxi Company and Vehicle Licens-
es." This table shows the number
of companies and vehicles licensed
during the past four years. Dia-
mond Cab Company is not operat-
ing during the current year. The
company has addressed a letter to
the Council requesting that the
rights of the company be main-
tained. The Black and White Cab
Company is currently licensed to
operate 15 cabs on a 12 month basis
and 5 cabs on a 6 months basis.
The apparent practice of the taxi-
cab business is to use more cabs
in the winter than summer months.
Moreover, it is understood that the
number of cabs licensed are not
operated on a 24 hour a day, seven
day week basis. Rather, they are
operated according to the demand
for service.
D. Section 5 of Ordinance 33-57
indicates that at a public hearing
the Council must determine the
need for additional taxicab service
based on:
1. Public convenience and neces-
sity.
2. The applicant is fit, willing and
able to perform such public
transportation service.
3. That the applicant can conform
to the requirements of the ordi.
nance and the laws of the state.
4. Consider the number of taxicabs
already in operation.
5. Consider if existing transporta-
tion is adequate to meet public
need.
6. The probable effect of increased
service on local traffic.
7. Character, experience and re.
sponsibility of applicant.

Mr. Robert Zahina, former oper-
ator of the Diamond Cab Co., re.
quested that his opportunity be left
open. Attorney Reyynolds ad-
dressed the Council in behalf of
Mr. Krapf! by stating that the num.
ber of cabs operating in the City
is not adequate for the needs of
the city. He suggested that Mr.
Krapf! be granted a franchise to
start with a minimum of four cabs
and a maximum of ten. Some con.
versation was had relative to chang.
iug some of the provisions of the
taxi.cab ordinance, presently in ef-
fect, to which attorney Reynolds
agreed, that the requirements are
proper. Mr. Joseph Even, president
of Black & White Cab and Veteran
Cab stated that he has been opel'.
ating cabs in the city for 28 years
with very few complaints. He cited
some of the conditions to be con.
sidered in the operation of the cab
business such as service rendered,
condition of equipment and type
and character of drivers employed.

Honorable Mayor and
City Council
Gentlemen:
I am returning to you the peti-
tion signed by Mr. and Mrs. Charles
Frost and others for bus service to
the western section of the City.
Also, I am enclosing a letter of
Captain Jenaman, dated Octoher 21
which describes the proposed serv-
ice.
On Octo her 20, representatives of
the Traffic Committee met with
Robert Dyer and Robert Love of
the Interstate Power Company. Mr.
Dyer authorized us to report the
service described in Captain Jena-
man's letter and stated that it
would be instituted when Ken-
nedy School was opened, and that
the service would be provided on a
trial basis. The continuance of the
extended service will depend on
passenger use. Kennedy School is
reported to be opened late in No-
vember.
I have written to Mr. and Mrs.
Frost asking them to contact the
other petitioners and report the
service proposal.
Respectfully,
Gilbert D. Chavenelle
City Manager
Mayor Horgan moved that the
communication be received and
.filed. Seconded by Councilman
Ludwig. Carried by the following
vote:
Yeas-Mayor Horgan, Council-
men Kean, Ludwig, Pfohl, Takos.

November 1, 1965
To the Honorable Mayor
and City Council
Gentlemen:
The petition of Mr. and Mrs.
William Frederick and others for
a street light in the 2400 block on
Mineral Street has been investi-
gated.
It is recommended that a 4000
lumen incandescent light be placed
at the intersection of Finley and
Mineral Streets. A light so placed
will improve the lighting condi-
tions and is in line with the street
light pattern in the area.
One petitioner has by phone re~
quested two lights within the 2400
block. Although Mineral Street is
travelled lIl.or~ frequently and

Insurance
Coverage
Property Damage
$5,000 $132
$50,000 $132 plus 10%
Personal Injury
$10,000-20,000 $345
$25,000-50,000 $411 $66
$100,000-300,000 $486 $75
This table provides a gauge for
cost of increased insurance cover-
age. If $50 to $250 deductable in.
surance were purchased it is esti-
mated that the cost would be re-
duced 25 to 50 percent. It is also
estimated that a fleet discount for
5 vehicles would be approximately
5% and for 20 vehicles, 15%.
Experience rating would be most
important in the purchase of insur-
ance for taxicabs. Credit for good
experience could only be developed
over a period of actual operation.
Respectfully submitted,
Gilbert D. Chavenelle
City Manager
Mayor Horgan moved that the re-
port be referred to the Council.
Seconded by Councilman Takos.

Regular Session, November 1, 1965
Since more equipment would
be required, the present ex-
cellent standard could not be
maintained.
E. Refer to Table IV, "Alternate
Taxi Proposal." This table is not
a recommendation, it is merely in-
tended to indicate points for dis-
cussion:
1. It is proposed to divide. Zone
2 along Pennsylvania Avenue into
Zone 3 north and Zone 2 south.
Thus travel within all zones would
be approximately equal. Accord-
ingly, it is proposed that the rate
charged for service entirely within
a zone be charged at the rate of
Zone 1.
2. It is proposed that the rate
for additional passengers (same ori-
gin and destination) be 20c in each
zone. The company has proposed
25c in Zone 3.
3. It is proposed that waiting
time of 5 minutes be charged at a
rate of 12 cents for each 2 minutes
of waiting time.
In the discussion of rates the
company has argued for its pro-
posal on these points amongst
others:
1. A too high rate on the long
haul business will eliminate that
business rather than make it pay
its full share.
2. A run must be made profit-
able for a driver or he will have
a tendency not to service the call.
This will occur if there is a single
rate for intra-zone service.
3. Picking up of extra passen-
gers is necessary for the overall
profit of drivers and company.
III. Minimum Insurance Require..
ments
C. The Chairroan of the City In-
surance Committee reports the fol-
lowing estimated insurance costs.
:These estimates are without any
fleet discount, experience discount
or discount for deductable insur-
ance.
A. Refer to Table V, "Taxicab
Minimum Insurance Requirements."
It is apparent that several Iowa
cities do not have a large mini-
mum requirement.
B. Black and White Company re-
ports that they have just recently
changed their insurance to 100,000-
300,00.50,000 basis. The company
reports the cost as $133 per vehicle.
It is not reported whether this is
an additional cost or total cost.
D.
370
2. As a rule of thumb, a cab
must charge approximately 40c per
revenue mile. The Black and White
Company recorded gross mileage
and collected revenue for 75% of
their vehicles on a portion of Oc-
tober 26th and all of October 27th
and 28th. The average collection
was 23 cents per gross mile. This
included the dead miles or nOD-
revenue miles driven. Drivers esti-
mate the dead miles to be 25 to
30 % of the total. If thls he so
then on the test days the average
charge was 33 cents per revenue
mile. It could well be that the dead
miles were more than 30%, how-
ever, the test does indicate that
the company is operating within
the required rule of thumb range.
3. A brief review of the trip
sheets of the Black and Whlte Com-
pany indicates that an almost negli-
gible portion of the trips have
origin and destinations completely
within Zone 2 or completely with-
in Zone 3. This could change with
the opening of the Kennedy School
or on bad weather days when stu-
dents taxi to Wahlert School.
4. The Black and White Com-
pany apparently has predicted its
rate request on the distance that a
zone iSl from 8th and Main and to
service a call a cab always starts
from this central point. This does
not account for the benefit of radio
dispatching where by a cab work~
ing in the area of Zone 3 could
be sent to a call in that zone.
5. It apppears, on cursory ex~
amination of the service rendered
by the Black and White Company,
that the fees paid by the shorter
trip passenger are subsidizing the
longer trip passenger. Further, the
cost of the service is greatly re-
duced by the practice of picking
up several passengers on one run.
I believe that the answer to this
problem is in the use of rates
charged on the basis of taxi-meters
and preventing the pick up of
extra passengers on a run.
The Company argues against the
use of taxi-meters on the basis of.
A. More vehicular equipment
would be required.
B. Long haul rates would be so
high that taxi service would
be priced out of the market.
C. Pick up of extra passengers
is necessary to make the pro-
per earning for both company
and driver.

of 1633 White Street; claiming no
barricade at said hole, which inci-
dent allegedly occurred on Sep-
tember 17, 1965.
I have made an investigation of
this matter and find that at said
time and place Peoples Natural Gas
were excavating in that area and
there had been a barricade in exist~
eoce at said point and it had either
been struck or removed by persons
unknown immediately prior to the
incident at hand.
I find no actionable negligence
on the part of the City of Dubuque
and therefore recommend that said
claim be denied as it apppears that
claimant's claim, if any. is against
the company in question.
Original claim is attached hereto.

Attorney Marshall Thomas, rep-
resenting Hillcrest Investment Ine.,
suggested development of MUltiple
Housing as proposed in Picardy
Park #2. There seems to be a
continued shortage of apartment
dwellings. The proposed develop.
ment would be called town house
development at an estimated cost
of one and two tenths million dol-
lars. It would provide about eighty
family units consisting of one, two
or three bedrooms as follows: forty
eight two bedroom units; twelve
three bedroom and twelve one
bedroom units and eight effi~
ciency apartments, plus a recrea-
tional area. The units would rent
from $115 to $195 per month. Need
is an important factor.
Attorney Hal Reynolds stated
that the objector has asked to over.
rule the decision of the Planning
and Zoning Commission. The deci-
sion is not to be based on the need
for Multiple Housing. Do you drop
Multiple Housing into the normal-
ly Family Residential area? This
has been going on in this particular
area for about ten years and so far
it has always been turned down
by the Planning and Zoning Com-
mission. I've almost made a career
out of this issue.
