§ 27-26. Interurban transportation.

(a)

Nothing in this chapter or section shall be construed to prohibit any taxicab passenger vehicle from coming into the city for discharging persons accepted for transportation outside the city. While the vehicle is in the city, no roof light or special light shall be used indicating that the vehicle is vacant or subject for hire. No person shall be solicited or accepted in such vehicle within the city limits.

(b)

However, the director of the Department of Transportation and Mobility is authorized to waive this requirement when it is necessary to cooperate with adjacent cities where a large convention such as the Democratic or Republican National Convention is held.
