Every person who performs a taxicab service in the City shall first
obtain a taxicab operator’s license and/or a taxicab owner’s license
as required by this Chapter. Such license shall be posted prominently
in the taxicab with a schedule of all fares and charges. These

Application. Every person, before providing taxicab service, shall
apply to the City for a taxicab operator’s license and/or taxicab

(1) provide a full set of fingerprints administered by the
Pullman Police Department, except that fingerprints will not be
required for any renewal that occurs within (5) years of the
latest submittal of fingerprints by the applicant. Any fee
charged by a governmental agency to receive and/or process the
fingerprints shall be borne by the applicant.
(2) provide a valid driver’s license and current abstract driving
record.

(3) provide a list of all vehicles to be used for taxicab

6.94.045 Investigation.
Before any license shall be issued under this chapter, the city shall

background will utilize the fingerprints submitted. Upon receipt of
the fingerprints and the appropriate nonrefundable fees, the
Washington State Patrol will compare the subject's fingerprints
against its criminal database and submit the fingerprints to the
Federal Bureau of Investigation for a comparison with nationwide
records. The results of the Washington State Patrol and Federal Bureau
of Investigation check will be returned to the police department. The
City shall not issue a license or renewal license if the background
check reveals any of the grounds for denial or revocation under
Pullman City Code 6.94.090. The applicant shall be notified of the
basis for denial or revocation of a license.
An applicant subject to the above fingerprint-based background check
may request and receive a copy of the results of the background check
from the City. Should he/she seek to amend or correct his/her record,
he/she must contact the Washington State Patrol for a Washington state
record or the Federal Bureau of Investigation for records from other
jurisdictions maintained in its file.
