Abstract:Effective January 1979 the City of San Diego removed its previous ceiling on taxi licenses and began issuing 6 new taxi permits every month; in July, this limit was raised to 15. In August, the city replaced the standard rate of fare with a variable pricing policy under which taxi companies may file and charge individually-determined rates. An initial maximum rate was removed in October 1980. This Final Report evaluates the effects of these taxi regulatory revisions on local taxi service suppliers, taxi users, and taxi regulators. Evaluation issues included changes in the level and quality of taxi service, taxi user characteristics and awareness of service, taxi service productivity measures and the administrative efforts involved in implementation. Since the city's code changes affected taxi industry size and operations at San Diego International Airport and in San Diego County, special attention was also paid to interjurisdictional issues.
