ACRP LRD 39 11 STATE AND LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS Airport sponsors and operators are required to comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations. An overview of the federal laws and regulations, and regulatory agencies was previously presented. In regard to ground transportation, the federal laws and regulations concern areas such as motor carrier safety, airport sponsor grant assurances, highway safety, commercial motor vehicles, rail, and transit. The state and local laws and regulations focus more on the day to day operations of commercial ground transportation. These state and local laws and regulations involve areas such as permitting of operators and drivers, insurance, regulatory fee, rules of operation in and around terminals, employee conduct, vehicle condition, and compliance enforcement. The following are state by state discussions of state and local laws and regulations for 44 states and 49 NPIAS primary airports. The reasons for choosing these states and airports were discussed under the Scope section. Alaska Statewide Title 28 of the 2019 Statutes of Alaska concerns motor vehicles. Chapters related to ground transportation operation at airports include Chapter 1 (Alaska Uniform Traffic Laws Act), Chapter 10 (Vehicle Registration, Liens, and Title), Chapter 15 (Drivers’ Licenses), Chapter 20 (Motor Vehicle Safety Responsibility Act), Chapter 22 (Mandatory Motor Vehicle Insurance), Chapter 23 (Transportation Network Companies and Drivers), Chapter 32 (Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety Citations), and Chapter 33 (Commercial Motor Vehicles). Alaska Stat. § 28 et seq. The Aviation Advisory Board is established in the department of transportation. Alaska Stat. § 44.42.210 (2017). The Transportation Network Companies Act, H.B. No. 132 30th Leg. (Ala. 2017), also known as the Let’s Ride Alaska Act and the Uber/ Lyft bill, established uniform TNC regulations in Alaska. The Act provided tort immunity to public agencies from TNC employee acts, allowed the exclusion of personal automobile coverage while vehicles are logged onto a TNC digital network, established minimum insur- ance requirements for when a driver is logged onto a TNC network and when a ride a occurring, and distinguished TNCs from common carriers, motor carriers, taxicabs, and for-hire vehicles. Alaska Stat. §§ 09.65.350, 21.96.018, 28.23.010, 28.23.050 (2019). The Act imposed TNC requirements, such as disclosure of fare and fare computation, display of TNC driver picture and license plate number, issuance of electronic receipt, procuring criminal background and driving record checks, and completion of vehicle safety inspection. Alaska Stat. § 28.23.020, 28.23.030, 28.23.100, 28.23.105 (2019). Case History A taxi driver, Megan Patrick, appealed her taxicab license revocation based on due process rights violations. Her chauffeur’s license had been previously suspended due to non-payment of fines. Her revocation was upheld by the transportation commission and the superior court. The court affirmed that administrative proceedings were governed by the provisions related to the Anchorage Transportation Commission in the Anchorage Municipal Code. The court upheld the revocation by concluding that no due process violations occurred. Patrick v. Mun. of Anchorage, 305 P.3d 292 (Alaska 2013). Alaska—Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport (ANC) ANC is owned by the Department of Transportation and Public Facilities. ANC is classified as a primary medium hub under the NPIAS.

Operations Manual ch. 6.6 (2019). Annual commercial vehicle permits are issued by the Airport Badge Office. There is no fee for off-airport rental car courtesy vehicles. A $75 fee is charged for hotel/motel courtesy vehicles, taxicabs, limousines, and nonscheduled shuttle service. Schedule buses pay a $1,050 fee. Tour passenger vehicles pay a $150 fee. Operations Manual ch. 6.9a (2019). City Municipal Code The City Municipal Code provides the classifications of the types of commercial vehicles used in the ANC Operations Manual. Anchorage Municipal Code § 11.10.010. Arizona Statewide Several chapters under Title 28, Transportation, of the 2019 Arizona Revised Statutes are related to ground transportation at airports. These chapters include Chapter 3 (Traffic and Vehicle Regulation), Chapter 7 (Certificate of Title and Registration), Chapter 8 (Motor Vehicle Driver Licenses), Chapter 9 (Vehicle Insurance and Financial Responsibility), Chapter 25 (Aviation), and Chapter 30 (For-Hire Transportation). Chapter 5 of Title 17 (Transportation) of the Arizona Administrative Code involves commercial programs. Case History Taxicab operator claimed state law preempted the Phoenix City Code in requiring a commercial ground transportation permit. The court held that the City’s code requiring a business permit to transport passengers at an airport was consistent with statewide drivers’ licensing requirements. Arizona v. Wilson, 796 P.2d 942 (Ariz. Ct. App. 1990). Pacific Greyhound Lines, which has an exclusive operating right between Chandler and Phoenix, claims Sun Valley Bus Lines is invading its territory. Mesa Airport Bus Lines had assigned its rights to transport passengers to and from Mesa airports to Sun Valley Bus Lines. The court held that the corporation commission had the exclusive power to issue certificates of convenience and necessity and that Sun Valley Bus Lines did operate illegally in Pacific Greyhound Lines’ territory. Certificates of public convenience and necessity allows the exclusion of otherwise qualified operators in furtherance of public interest. Pac. Greyhound Lines v. Sun Valley Bus Lines, 216 P.2d 404 (Ariz. 1950).

ACRP LRD 39 13 Arizona Corporation Commission claimed car rental companies are motor carriers thus requiring a certificate of convenience and ne- cessity. The court determined that rental car companies do not perform transportation themselves and rejected the commission’s claim. Mecham Pontiac Corp. v. Williams, 382 P.2d 558 (Arizona 1963) (en banc). Arizona—Phoenix Sky Harbor International (PHX) Overview PHX is operated and owned by the City of Phoenix. PHX is classified as a primary large hub under the NPIAS. It is ranked 13th in the United States, according to 2017 enplanements, equaling a total of 21,185,458. PHX serves the metropolitan area of Phoenix with a total population of 1.626 million. PHX is located three miles southeast of downtown Phoenix. The primary source of regulation is the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport Ground Transportation Operating Requirements. These requirements are promulgated pursuant to Phoenix City Code ch. 4 art. IV, commercial ground transportation vehicle rules and regulations. Local Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport Ground Transportation Operating Requirements— The manual outlines rules, regulations, and procedures for different types of commercial transportation, including taxicabs, limousines, shuttle buses, courtesy vehicles, VIP transportation, and scheduled ground transportation services. Regulation is essentially standardized among the different types of ground transportation. Cited as: Operating Requirements § x (2016). Authorization A permit issued by the Ground Transportation Office is required to operate at PHX. Non-regular operators, such as intrastate or interstate charter buses, may apply for a single use permit. Operating Requirements § 4. Insurance Proper insurance is required in conformance with Phoenix City Code § 4-68 and state law coverage limits. The minimum amounts are $250,000 for uninsured and underinsured motorists for 1-8 seats, $750,000 for uninsured and $300,000 for underinsured motorists for 9-15 seats, and $5,000,000 for uninsured and $300,000 for underinsured motorists for 16+ seats. Operating Requirements § 6. Drivers and Vehicles Ground transportation vehicles shall be clean and neat and include good general appearance. Air conditioners shall be operable when temperatures exceed 85-degrees or upon passenger request. An industry standard inspection, e.g., ASE certified, is required prior to operating on the airport. Operating Requirements § 7. Vehicles must be properly identified using a trade-dress or a PHX decal. The trade-dress must be displayed in a manner that is viewable from 50-feet. The PHX decal is nontransferable to another vehicle. Operating Requirements § 8. All drivers are subject to one of three security background check options, one being a free, fingerprint-based criminal history records check and security threat assessment provided by PHX. Providers who elect to use a third-party background check service are subject to security background check audits. Operating Requirements § 11.1, 11.1.2. Drivers must display driver identification placard at all times on the dashboard. Drivers must conduct themselves in a professional manner and be courteous. Drivers must present a professional appearance and maintain good personal hygiene. Operating Requirements § 11.2, 11.4, 11.6. Drivers can only pickup in designated locations that are clearly signed at terminal curbs. Drop-off can occur at all airport terminal inner curbs. Vehicles should wait in designated waiting areas until passengers are ready for pickup. Operating Requirements § 12.1, 12.2. (continued)

14 ACRP LRD 39 Due to airport safety, vehicles must not be unattended, i.e., within 15-feet of the vehicle. Operating Requirements § 12.5. Meet and greet of prearranged transportation must be approved via the permit process. Operating Requirements § 12.6. Vehicles must be equipped with either an automatic vehicle identification (AVI) or a global positioning system (GPS) vehicle tracker. The tracker allows PHX to audit a provider’s compliance with geofence, ingress/egress, and passenger pickup and drop-off. A provider using GPS must generate a virtual waybill for every passenger. Operating Requirements § 13.1, 13.2. Accessibility An operator must provide accessible ground transportation when requested or make arrangements to provide such services by another party. Operating Requirements § 9. Sustainability An operator will receive a 10% discount on trip fees, if alternative fuel motor vehicles are used. Such fuels include propane, compressed natural gas, liquefied natural gas, or full-electric. Operating Requirements § 10. Fees Operators shall buy trip fees according to Phoenix City Code § 4-78. Operating Requirements § 14. Compliance Violations of rules and regulations or the City Code may result in suspension or revocation of an operating permit. A point system is established where accumulated points within a rolling 36-month period are used to determine penalty severity. Appeals can be made via an administrative review and then to the Aviation Director. Operating Requirements § 15.1. 15.2. City Municipal Code Chapter 4 Article IV of the Phoenix City Code deals with commercial ground transportation vehicle rules and regulations at airports. The Operating Requirements follow the City Code and sometimes even refers to specific code sections by reference. For example, Operating Requirements § 14 requires operators to pay trip fees as specified in Phoenix City Code § 4-78. In general, these per trip fees are $3.25 for 1-8 seats, $4.25 for 9-23 seats, and $9 for 24+ seats. Off-airport rental car providers shall pay a fee of 7% of gross receipts derived from passengers transported between the airport and the rental facility. Taxicab fees are assessed according to current service contracts between providers and the City. Phoenix City Code §§ 4-78.A.1, 4-78.D, 4-78.N. California Statewide The California Public Utilities Commission is authorized to regulate various forms of commercial ground transportation, including char- ter-party carriers, transportation network companies, and passenger stage corporations. As an example, Chapter 5 (Certificates of Public Convenience and Necessity), Article 2 of the 2019 Public Utilities Code concerns passenger stage corporations. Case History Concessionaires challenged the contractual condition imposed by the City of Los Angeles to enter into a labor peace agreement to pre- vent service disruptions. Such an agreement includes provisions that prohibit picketing, boycotting, stopping work, and other forms of economic interference. The concessionaires claim that such contractual terms are effectively municipal regulations, and such regulations are preempted by three federal labor statutes: the National Labor Relations Act, Railway Labor Act, and Airline Deregulation Act. The court’s analysis discussed how a city that operates an airport is a participant in the airport rental car market and also competes against private modes of transportation such as train, car, and bus. Because the city was acting as a market participant, and not a regulator, the labor peace contractual agreements were not preempted by the federal acts. Airline Serv. Providers Ass’n v. L.A. World Airports, 869 F.3d 751 (9th Cir. 2017). Engine manufactures sought to invalidate the South Coast Air Quality Management District’s (SCAQMD) vehicle fleet rules for emissions standards and the requirement for a percentage of alternative fuel engines. The manufacturers claimed that the fleet rules were preempted

ACRP LRD 39 15 by the federal Clean Air Act. One fleet rule applied to public and private airport transportation fleets, including taxis, limousines, commer- cial shuttles, and courtesy vehicles. The court applied the market participant doctrine which protects state action from federal preemption when the state acts as a market participant and not a regulator. The court held that the fleet rules directed state and local governments in their market participation decisions such as purchasing, procuring, leasing, and contracting. Engine Mfrs. Assn. v. SCAQMD, 498 F.3d 1031 (9th Cir. 2007). A motor carrier operator, Funbus, claimed that the certificate of convenience and necessity issued by the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion (ICC) for permitting interstate service also authorizes independent intrastate service from LAX to Anaheim. The court ruled against Funbus in requiring that there must be a connection between the interstate and pre-existing interstate service in order for the interstate ICC certificate to permit intrastate service. The court held that the Bus Regulatory Reform Act, 49 U.S.C. § 10922 (partial rev. 1985), did not authorize the ICC to issue intrastate motor carrier certificates independent of interstate service. Congress did not intend to preempt the traditional state authority over the initiation of new intrastate bus operations. Funbus Sys, Inc., vs. California Pub. Util. Comm’n., 801 F.2d 1120 (9th Cir. 1986). The court affirmed a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) decision to classify drivers as employees working for Friendly Cab and six other taxicab companies. These taxicab companies operated predominantly at the Oakland International Airport. Such a classification extends the protection of the National Labor Relations Act, 29, 29 U.S.C. § 151 such as the ability to collectively bargain. The court found that Friendly Cab exercised considerable control over the means and manner of the drivers and did not allow drivers to pursue other op- portunities. NLRB v. Friendly Cab Co., Inc., 512 F.3d 1090 (9th Cir. 2007). California—Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) Overview LAX is owned and operated by the Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA), a department of the City of Los Angeles. LAX is classified as a primary large hub under the NPIAS. It is ranked second in the United States according to the 2017 enplanements, which reached a total of over 41 million. LAX serves the Los Angeles and surrounding metropolitan area. According to the U.S. Census, the metropolitan region has a 2018 population of 4 million. LAWA is governed by a seven-member Board of Airport Commissioners. LAWA consists of LAX and Van Nuys (VNY), a general aviation airport. Ground transportation operators at LAX are subject to various laws and regulations, including the Code of Federal Regulations, California Public Utilities Code, the California Vehicle Code, the Los Angeles Municipal Code, and the Los Angeles Administrative Code. However, airport rules and regulations, when legally permissible, take precedence over any other existing code, rule, or regulation. For example for vehicle identification, an operator could be subject to 49 CFR § 390.21 (marking of self-propelled commercial motor vehicles), CPUC Code § 1038.5 (distinctive identifying classification symbol), and CPUC General Order Series 158 § 4.03-4.06 (display of carrier name, vehicle number, permit number). Local Los Angeles World Airports Ground Transportation Rules and Regulations—The ground transportation rules and regulations were adopted by Board Resolution 26123. The Rules and Regulations sometimes reference other codes. For instance, § 3.2.1 cites the Los Angeles Municipal Code §171.02 in requiring a permit for engaging in commercial activities at LAX. The Rules and Regulations are especially interconnected with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) Code. For example, the Rules and Regulations classify ground transportation into the two general categories of passenger stage corporation and transportation charter party (TCP). The Rules and Regulations cites CPUC Code § 226 for the definition of passenger stage corporation and implies that the CPUC Code definition of TCP applies even though the relevant code sections, CPUC Code §§ 5351-5363, are not cited explicitly. Cited as: Rules and Regs. § x.x.x (2017). Taxicabs Operators and drivers shall comply with the current Taxicab Rules and Regulations established by the City of Los Angeles Taxicab Commissioners under Board Order No. 471. In general, Rules and Regulations do not apply to taxicabs. Rules and Regs. §§ 2, 3 (2017).

16 ACRP LRD 39 Authorization Commercial ground transportation operators shall have a permit or the appropriate operating authority when operating in LAX. The permit shall be affixed to a vehicle in a location and manner prescribed by LAWA. Vehicle permits are not transferable or assignable. Rules and Regs. § 3.2.1.1, 3.2.4.1, 3.2.4.3 (2017). An operator cannot obtain dual authority to operate as both passenger stage corporation and TCP. An operator cannot obtain dual authority to operate as both TCP and TNC. TCP operators cannot engage in taxicab transportation services or transport rental car customers. A TCP operator can only provide service to either the general public or airline crews under the same name. Rules and Regs. §§ 3.2.2.3, 4.2, 4.6, 4.7, 6.2, 8.2 (2017). Operating Rules An AVI transponder is required at all times for operation at LAX. Rules and Regs. § 3.2.5.1 (2017). Operators must comply with vehicle identification rules that are appropriate with their USDOT, CPUC, and/or LADOT authorization. Rules and Regs. § 3.3.1 (2017). All commercial vehicles shall be in safe and clean operating condition. Rules and Regs. § 3.3.1 (2017). Vehicles should load and unload only in zones designated for their specific type of operation or as otherwise directed by LAWA. Vehicles parked at a curb cannot be unattended. Vehicles not actively loading or unloading shall park in holding lots. No loading and unloading may occur in holding lots. Rules and Regs. § 3.3.4, 3.3.8, 3.3.9 (2017). Vehicles and Drivers An operator is prohibited from using name, logo, and color schemes similar to another operator at LAX. Rules and Regs. § 3.2.7.1(2017). Vehicles cannot display any form of advertising unless agreed upon by LAWA. Rules and Regs. § 3.3.17 (2017). An employee of a transportation operator shall not solicit passengers on LAX for any reason. TCP drivers shall not cruise in front of terminal seeking to transport passengers without a prearranged agreement. Rules and Regs. §§ 3.3.18, 4.5 (2017). Identification badges or cards shall be displayed while on airport premises. Rules and Regs. § 3.3.21 (2017). Drivers shall present a clean and neat appearance while on airport premises and be courteous. Rules and Regs. § 3.3.22, 3.3.23 (2017). Fees Operators pay trip fees according to the vehicle category as stipulated by the City, and they pay an annual administrative fee. Rules and Regs. § 3.2.6.1, 3.2.6.3 (2017). Compliance If an operator is terminated for cause, that operator can be prevented from operating for up to three-years. Rules and Regs. § 3.2.1.4 (2017). Penalties and hearing rights for taxicabs are prescribed in the LADOT Taxicab Rules. Penalties and hearing rights for TNCs are prescribed in the nonexclusive license agreement. Excluding taxicabs and TNCs, the penalties for all other commercial ground transportation operators are based on a vehicle violation points system. All other operators are entitled to an impartial LAWA administrative hearing to appeal violations. Rules and Regs. §§ 10, 11, 12.3, 12.4 (2017). Insurance Operators shall maintain the insurance coverage as specified in the agreement with LAWA. Rules and Regs. § 3.2.1.5 (2017). Transportation Charter Party TCP drivers shall possess a paper or electronic waybill for each prearranged trip. A TCP waybill contains information on airline and airport terminal pickup location in addition to regular CPUC waybill requirements. TCP drivers shall only pick up passengers with a valid trip ticket, i.e., a prearranged trip. Rules and Regs. § 4.5, 4.8.1, 4.8.2.2 (2017). Transportation Network Company TNC drivers shall only accept mobile app assignments and not accept street hails within the airport geofenced areas. Shared rides are not allowed. TNC vehicles shall not recirculate or loiter near the airport. The TNC mobile app must generate the electronic equivalent of a waybill and be subjected to inspections. Rules and Regs. § 4.9.1, 4.9.5, 4.9.6, 4.9.7, 4.9.10 (2017).

ACRP LRD 39 17 Passenger Stage Corporations Passenger stage corporation vehicles must display destination signs. Passenger stage corporation operators shall file with LAWA schedules and routes. Drivers must follow the filed routes and schedules. Rules and Regs. § 6.5, 6.11.1, 6.11.2 (2017). Passenger stage corporation vehicles must accommodate at least 25 passengers. Rules and Regs. § 6.11.3 (2017). California Public Utilities Commission Code—The CPUC Code is closely connected with the LAWA Ground Transportation Rules and Regulations. Two important definitions are passenger stage corporation and transportation charter party (TCP). A passenger stage corpo- ration provides transportation service to the general public on an individual-fare basis. Such a service could involve fixed-route scheduled service or on-call, door-to-door service. In contrast, TCP provides prearranged rides for the exclusive use of an individual or group. TCP fares are computed based on various combinations of mileage and/or time. CPUC Code §§ 226, 5351-5363 (2019). Taxicab Rules and Regulations of the Board of Taxicab Commissioners City of Los Angeles—These rules and regulations were established by the Board of Taxicab Commissioners by Order No. 471. The current revision is dated April 20, 2017. As discussed in LAWA Ground Transportation Rules and Regulations, taxicabs are unique from all other airport ground transportation modes in that they are mainly regulated by the Board. California—San Francisco International Airport (SFO) Overview SFO is owned and operated by the City of San Francisco. SFO is classified as a primary large hub under the NPIAS. It is ranked seventh in the United States, according to the 2017 enplanements, which reached a total of close to 27 million. SFO is located 13 miles south of downtown San Francisco and serves the surrounding metropolitan area. According to the U.S. Census, the metropolitan region has a 2017 population of 884,363. Ground transportation at the San Francisco International Airport (SFO) is mainly regulated by the San Francisco International Airport Rules and Regulations established by the San Francisco Airport Commission. Operators also need to comply with applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations, including the San Francisco Transportation Code and San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) regulations. Local Airport Rules and Regulations Cited as: Rules and Regs. § x.x (2016). Authorization CPUC and airport permits are required for the following operators: charter buses, courtesy shuttles, limousines, scheduled transportation operators, shared-ride vans, and transportation network companies. Transportation vendors contracted by the City and County of San Francisco are exempt from permit requirements. Rules and Regs. § 4.7(A)(1), 4.7(A)(3) (2016). Drivers and Vehicles All trade-dress and markings required by law and permit terms and conditions shall be displayed. Vehicle tracking devices shall be maintained and not modified or destroyed.

City Code Section 1100 of the San Francisco Transportation Code mainly regulates taxicabs although the section applies to all vehicles for-hire. Cited as: Transportation Code § x.x (2019). Authorization Operators and drivers of vehicles for-hire are required to have a SFMTA permit, a medallion. Such a permit is not transferrable, except for transferrable medallions affiliated with a single-color scheme permit. A ramp taxi medallion allows the operation of vehicles that are wheelchair accessible. Transportation Code §§ 1102, 1105(a) (1), (4), §1109(a)(1) (2019). A permit holder needs to comply with all SFO regulations. Transportation Code § 1105(a)(6) (2019). The SFMTA Board will hold hearings from time-to-time to decide whether to limit the number of permits issued per class. Transportation Code § 1115 (2019).

ACRP LRD 39 19 Vehicles and Drivers Drivers shall be clean in dress and person, hold a current California driver’s license, have no prior criminal convictions that would present a risk to public safety, be 21-years or older, and be able to speak, read, and write in English.

Colorado Statewide Article 10.1 of Title 40 (Utilities) of the 2018 Colorado Revised Statutes concerns motor carriers of passengers. Part 6 addressed transpor- tation network companies. Case History Mile High Cab, Inc., had its application for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity denied by the Colorado Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). Existing ground transportation operators, such as SuperShuttle and Denver Yellow Cab, intervened on behalf of CPUC. The Supreme Court of Colorado reversed the district court’s affirmation of the CPUC denial, ruling that the record did not prove by a preponderance of the evidence that the issuance of a certificate would actually be detrimental to the public interest in bringing about destructive and excessive competition. The court affirmed that the CPUC has been granted constitutional and statutory authority to regu- late. But the court noted that the expert testimony utilized by the CPUC was vague in predictions about future market conditions, using words such as “could very well” and “a distinct possibility.” Mile High Cab, Inc., v. Colo. Pub. Utilities Comm’n, 302 P.3d 241 (Colo., 2013). A class action lawsuit brought by car rental customers involved federal antitrust violations and various state law claims, such as fraud and unjust enrichment, against 14 car rental companies operating at Denver International Airport (DEN). The City and the County of Denver had charged usage fees to be collected by all car rental companies on lease at the airport as part of a bonding ordinance to help fund con-

20 ACRP LRD 39 struction of car rental facilities. The usage fee was initially set at $2.98 and then adjusted. The court held that the city and county had the authority to construct car rental facilities at DEN, issue bonds to finance construction, lease car rental facilities, and require the collection of daily usage fees on car rental customers. Zimomra v. Alamo Rent-A-Car, Inc., 111 F.3d 1495 (10th Cir. 1997). Yellow Cab was denied the opportunity to intervene by the Colorado Public Utilities Commission in an administrative hearing on the alteration of a certificate of public convenience and necessity held by 191 Corp. 191 Corp. requested a change to allow the use of 32 pas- senger vehicles instead of 12. Yellow Cab contends that it had been granted exclusive authority to provide airport transportation using 20 passenger vehicles under the doctrine of regulated monopoly. The court acknowledged PUC’s power to license and regulate motor carriers under the doctrine of regulated monopoly. Because 191 Corp.’s request to expand service calls into question the adequacy of Yellow Cab’s exclusive service, Yellow Cab should have been allowed to intervene in the PUC proceedings. Yellow Cab Co-op. Ass’n v. Public Utilities Com’n of State of Colo., 869 P.2d 545 (Colo., 1994). A limousine driver brought a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 civil rights action against the City of Denver for issuing a citation for lack of a Herdic license. Herdic licenses were named after the 19th century horse-drawn carriage invented by Peter Herdicin.28 The driver held a valid Colorado driver’s license and a DEN ground transportation badge, and the vehicle displayed the proper US DOT number. The limousine operator, however, did not produce a Herdic license which was required of all vehicles for hire in the City and County of Denver. The limousine driver’s claims for injunctive relief and commerce clause violation were dismissed. Harris v. City & Cnty. of Denver, No. 11-cv-01201-MSK- KLM (D. Colo. 2012). Herdic ordinance specified that it was unlawful for any person to drive a vehicle for hire in Denver unless the person was properly licensed by the City of Denver. Denver Rev. Mun. Code §55-41 (1989) (repealed 2016). Others also challenged the Herdic license requirement. The Council of the City and County of Denver decided to repeal entire sections regulating drivers and vehicles for hire. Denver, Col., Council Bill No. 16-1196 (2016). Several reasons were mentioned for the repeal, including Herdic license challenges and a 2016 district court ruling that the Herdic ordinance was preempted by state law.29 Colorado—Denver International Airport (DEN) Overview DEN is owned and operated by the City of Denver Department of Aviation. DEN is classified as a primary large hub under the NPIAS. It is ranked fifth according to the 2017 enplanements, which reached a total of 29,809,097. DEN serves the surrounding metropolitan region. According to the U.S. Census, the 2017 population of Denver is 619,968. Ground transportation at DEN is regulated at multiple levels of government, including federal (e.g., Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration), state (e.g., Colorado Public Utilities Commission), County and City of Denver, and Denver’s Department of Aviation. Local Part 100 of the Rules and Regulations Governing Denver International Airport concerns ground transportation. These rules and regula- tions are authorized under Article II, Part 11 of the Charter of the City and County of Denver; Chapter 5 of the Denver Municipal Code; and Title 41, Article 4 of the Colorado Revised Statutes.

22 ACRP LRD 39 Connecticut Statewide Title 13b, Volume 4 of the 2019 General Statutes of Connecticut involves transportation. Chapter 244 addresses motor buses, Chapter 244a addresses taxicabs, Chapter 244b addresses livery service, and Chapter 244c addresses transportation network companies. Case History The Local 443 Teamsters chapter represents chauffeurs who provide service from Connecticut to various airports. The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) had ruled that a superseniority clause in the collective bargaining agreement between chauffeurs and the Con- necticut Limousine Service violated the National Labor Relations Act. The court ruled that the presumption of illegality against a super- seniority clause can be rebutted by legitimate and substantial business justifications. The chauffeurs demonstrated that the superseniority clause enabled some drivers to bid successfully for early morning trips in order to maximize contact with other company employees. The court upheld the superseniority clause in overturning the NLRB’s decision. N.L.R.B. v. Local 443, 600 F.2d 411 (2nd Cir., 1979).

Florida Statewide Title 23 of the 2018 Florida Statues involves motor vehicles and Title 24 involves public transportation. Title 27 (Insurance), Chapter 627 (Insurance Rates and Contracts), Part 11 involves motor vehicle insurance, including requirements for TNCs. Case History City Cab Co. sought to overturn a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) order forcing City Cab to bargain collectively with its taxi drivers. City Cab contends that its drivers are not employees but independent contractors; thus, not covered under the National Labor Relations Board Act. The court affirmed NLRB’s ruling by applying the principles of agency law. City Cab has an exclusive contract to operate at the Orlando airport, and Orlando permits City Cab to operate 115 of the 127 taxicabs in Orlando. Some important factors favor- ing the employee designation are: (1) airport requiring drivers to maintain a trip sheet recording trips and fares, (2) City Cab regulating work hours, (3) dispatch and starters controlling passenger selection, (4) airport mandating that drivers accept all passengers, and (5) an extensive dress code. City Cab Co. of Orlando, Inc. v. N.L.R.B., 628 F.2d 261 261 (D.C. Cir., 1980). Several ground transportation companies in Orlando, including Airport Limousine Service, challenged Fla. Stat. ch. 324.031 that amend- ed insurance coverage requirements. These companies claimed that the federal Liability Risk Retention Act had preempted the Florida statute. The Florida statute no longer permits for-hire passenger transportation companies to self-insure the first $25,000 of liability, but

24 ACRP LRD 39 instead required the purchase of insurance from a member of the Florida Insurance Guaranty Association. The court held that Congress had intended to preserve state authority to utilize financial responsibility laws to protect the public; therefore, the federal act did not pre- empt the new state insurance requirements. Mears Transp. Group v. State, 34 F.3d 1013 (11th Cir., 1994).

Georgia Statewide Title 40 of the 2018 Georgia Code involves motor vehicles and traffic. Case History A limousine service, Town & Country, sought to invalidate the City of Atlanta’s ordinances on minimum fares for trips to and from ATL. Town & Country claims that the ordinances violate the commerce clause by placing an unreasonable burden on interstate commerce. The court agreed that the Town & Country limousine service was part of interstate commerce because the vast majority of Town & Country’s service were prearranged trips to and from ATL. But the court ruled that the minimum fare requirements did not place a prohibitive burden on interstate commerce. Interstate commerce clause protects the overall interstate market and not specific firms. The burdens that the fare requirements impose on interstate commerce are at most incidental. Executive Town & Country Servs., Inc. v. City of Atlanta, 789 F.2d 1523 (11th Cir., 1986).

ACRP LRD 39 27 Taxicab owners in Atlanta sought to invalidate an annual renewal charge on holders of Certificates of Public Necessity and Convenience (CPNC) by claiming that the charge is an impermissible tax instead of a regulatory fee. The court noted that the basic power of taxation belongs to the state, and a city may only tax when the authority is expressly conferred. A tax is primarily a revenue-raising measure while a fee serves to aid in regulating an activity. Even though the Bureau of Taxicabs & Vehicles for Hire receives the majority of its operating funds from Atlanta’s general fund, with the airport fee being only a small portion, the renewal fee is not sufficient to fund the regulatory activity performed. The court affirmed that the CPNC charge was a fee used to defray the cost of regulatory activities and not an impermis- sible tax. Hadley v. City of Atlanta, 232 Ga.App. 871 (Ga. App., 1998). Airport taxicab operators challenged the City of Atlanta’s taxicab ordinances on four points. First, the operators claimed that a limit on the number of taxicabs permitted placed an unreasonable burden on interstate commerce. The court ruled that while competition generally benefits the public, restraints imposed by the ordinances increased the level of service to the public and increased profitability for drivers. Second, the operators claimed that requiring drivers to have been a local resident for one-year violates the constitutional right to travel. The court applied the rational basis test to uphold the ordinance and held that public safety and efficient service are legitimate interests furthered by the residency requirement. Third, the operators alleged the ordinance violates equal protection because certain criminal con- victions automatically disqualify a driver while other convictions result in discretionary revocation. The court found that applicants and permit holders were treated equally. Last, the operators contended the requirement that taxicab operators own at least 25 vehicles violates the freedom of association. The court dismissed the challenge based on freedom of association as it has not found any case in a similar commercial context. Airport Taxi Cab Advisory Comm. v. City of Atlanta, 584 F.

Hawaii Statewide Title 15 of the 2019 Hawaii Revised Statutes concerns transportation and utilities. Case History SIDA of Hawaii, an organization representing independent taxicab owners and operators serving the Honolulu International Airport (HNL), sought classification of its members as independent contractors instead of employees. SIDA had the exclusive right for providing metered taxi service at HNL. The court agreed with SIDA that its members do not fall under the definition of employee under the National Labor Relations Act § 2(3), 29 U.S.C. § 152(3) (1964). The court applied the agency test in analyzing the extent of control exercised by SIDA, Associated Independent Owner-Operators, Inc. v. NLRB, 407 F.2d 1383, 1385 (9th Cir. 1969). SIDA of Hawaii v. NLRB, 512 F.2d 354 (9th Cir. 1975). Employees of Auto Rental, Inc., Ltd., sought recovery for overtime compensation under Section 16(b) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, 9 U.S.C. § 201 et seq. The employees drove an 11-passenger stretched-out limousine called “the airporter” that mainly serviced Honolulu International Airport. The court held that the Act was limited to those engaged in interstate commerce, and that airporter trans- portation was merely local in nature. In contrast to Airlines Transp., Inc. v. Tobin, 198 F.2d 249 (4th Cir. 1952), the court ruled that there was no close knit relationship between the airlines and the airporters in de-coupling the interstate trip with the subsequent intrastate travel.

Idaho Statewide Title 49 of the 2019 Idaho Statues concerns motor vehicles. Chapter 37 is the codified Transportation Network Company Services Act. Case History Frazier claimed the City of Boise violated Article VIII, § 3 of the Idaho Constitution for incurring public liability in building parking facili- ties at the Boise Airport without a public vote. The Idaho Constitution has an exception from requiring a vote if an undertaking is “ordi- nary and necessary.” The court held that the parking project did not fall under the “ordinary and necessary” exception. The City had dealt with the increasing demand for parking by shuttling travelers to off-site parking areas. The need for the construction of the permanent parking structure was not deemed to be immediate or urgent; therefore, the City should submit the project to a vote of the people. City of Boise v. Frazier, 137 P.3d 388 (Idaho, 2006).

32 ACRP LRD 39 Illinois Statewide Chapter 625 of the 2019 Illinois Compiled Statutes concerns vehicles. TNCs are addressed in 625 ILCS 57 (2019). Case History A Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) train had derailed at the O’Hare International Airport station. The train overran the bumper and partially ascended the airport escalator leading to 30 people being injured. CTA determined that train operator fatigue was the cause and implemented operational rules to improve safety. CTA added rules such as limiting work hours to 12 per day in any 14-hour period and limiting work days to six in any consecutive seven-day period. The local workers union claimed that CTA had violated the collective bar- gaining agreement (CBA) by unilaterally implementing these new rules. Arbitrators and the lower court had ruled that CTA had violated the CBA. CTA asked the appellate court to vacate those rulings due to a public policy exception; namely, that Illinois public policy requires for CTA to provide safe mass transportation to the public. In ruling against the applicability of the public policy exception, the court ex- plained that the Illinois Constitution and Transit Act did not demonstrate a well-defined public policy regarding the safety associated with transit workers’ scheduling or work hours in order to vacate arbitration awards concerning labor terms.

Indiana Statewide Title 8 of the 2018 Indiana Code concerns utilities and transportation. Chapter 19.2 addresses TNCs. Case History The Indiana General Assembly created the Northwest Indiana Regional Development Authority (RDA) to improve transportation and economic development in Northwest Indiana. This region faces unique and distinct challenges that are different than those faced by other parts of Indiana. RDA was intended to help fund and develop the Gary/Chicago International Airport, commuter transportation district, rail projects, regional bus authority projects, and regional transportation authority projects. The Porter County Council decided to with- draw from the RDA and sought declaratory judgment that the Council had such ability. In ruling that the RDA Act did not authorize Porter County to withdraw, the court noted that the legislature’s goals and purposes in enacting RDA were compelling. The legislature provides means for local governments to withdraw from local development authorities and did not do so in the case of the RDA. Cnty. Council of Porter Cnty. v.

Case History A central issue in two life insurance cases was whether or not a defendant was a common carrier according to Iowa law. If a death occurred while the insured was a passenger in common carrier public conveyance, then the insurance payments increased. Here, the transportation was part of an overall travel package purchased by a travel agency. The court defined a common carrier as one who holds himself/herself out to the public to furnish transportation to all who requested such services within the limits of his/her facilities. A common carrier does not need to cater to all the public as long as it is willing to transport for-hire all those who come within the scope of services. The court affirmed the lower court’s ruling that airport transporters were common carriers and that the additional insurance amounts applied. Kvalheim v. Horace Mann Life Ins.

ACRP LRD 39 37 Kentucky Statewide Title 16 of the 2018 Kentucky Revised Statutes concerns motor vehicles. Case History In a personal injury case involving a Transit Authority of River City (TARC) bus, a main issue is whether or not TARC enjoyed sovereign immunity from a negligence lawsuit. TARC provides transportation services like other for-hire taxi and bus services in the Louisville metropolitan region. The court distinguished those who provided transportation services from those who provided transportation in- frastructure. For example, a county airport board exists solely to provide and maintain the air transportation infrastructure. The board exercises core functions of the government by legislating and issuing bonds. The board itself does not provide transportation services. In contrast, TARC simply provides transportation services and does not carry out functions integral to state government such as legislating, administrating, or facilitating statewide transit. TARC’s motion for summary judgment on the grounds of immunity was therefore denied. Transit Auth. of River City & Dalton Holt v. Bibelhauser, 432 S.W.3d 171 (Ky. Ct. App., 2014).

Case History A local newspaper filed a public records request for a TNC’s driver registry and trip data relative to third-party drivers. A TNC driver sought to block the release on the grounds of right to privacy. The court agreed with the TNC driver and ruled that such information was not subject to a public records request, and the driver’s right to privacy outweighed any public interest in the information. The court contrasted the codes governing taxicabs and TNCs. For taxicabs, the code specified that the records pertaining to the certificates of public necessity and convenience, and driver’s permits to be made available to the public at all times. For TNCs, the code only specified that the information pertaining to the TNC permittees to be public and not the drivers. A driver’s licensure flows from the TNC permittee, and the city’s regulatory scheme shields TNC drivers’ personal information from public discovery. Rasier, LLC v.

ACRP LRD 39 41 Maine Statewide Title 29 of the Maine Revised Statutes concerns motor vehicles. Case History Off-airport rental car companies challenged the City of Portland’s fees of 4-6% of gross revenues from airport-derived business. Previ- ously, off-airport rental car companies were not charged a fee while on-airport companies paid a fee of 10% of gross revenues in addition to terminal counter space charges. The court found that the fees were not an illegal tax but that they were reasonably related to the cost of maintaining, repairing, and operating the entire airport revenue producing facility. Even though the rental car companies claim they only impose a minimal burden on the airport, they do use the airport and its roadways. The court found that the difference in fees charged to shuttle buses versus rental car operations was rationally based on the differences and the benefits each received from the airport. Thus the fees were not unjust, unreasonable, and inequitable. Hefflefinger, Inc. v. City of Portland, 1999 ME 153, 739 A.2d 844 (Me., 1999).

Maryland Statewide Title 10, Division I (Public Services and Utilities) of the 2019 Maryland Public Utilities Code concerns for-hire driving services. Case History An airport prearranged ground transportation provider, American Sedan Services, Inc. challenged a Maryland Aviation Administration (MAA) regulation requiring the display of a valid permit on the rearview mirror while operating at BWI. A violation of such a regulation is considered a misdemeanor. The driver had left the permit in another vehicle and picked-up passengers without the required permit. Maryland Transportation Authority (MdTA) police arrested the driver and impounded the vehicle while conducting special permit en- forcement. The special enforcement was in response to complaints about unauthorized operation of commercial vehicles at BWI. The court held that the regulation requiring the permit display had been published in accordance with the Maryland Administrative Procedure Act and the Maryland Documents Law and was not required to be posted at the airport. The court ruled the officer had the authority to make the misdemeanor arrest. State v. Roshchin, 130 A.3d 453, 446 Md. 128 (Md. App., 2016).

ACRP LRD 39 47 Minnesota Statewide Chapters 218 to 222 of the 2018 Minnesota Statutes govern carriers. Case History The Minneapolis Yellow Taxi Company (Yellow) operates in many areas of the Twin Cities, including the Minneapolis-St. Paul Metropoli- tan International Airport (Airport). At issue was the classification of the taxicab lessees as either employees or independent contractors. If they were classified as employees, then Yellow would be required to collectively bargain with the drivers about the terms and conditions of employment. The court ruled that the lessees were independent contractors overturning the ruling by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). The court applied a right-to-control test with a “totality of circumstances approach.” The important factors include lack of control over the manner of operations, freedom in not accepting calls or dispatches, and no compensation paid to lessees. Lessees paid a daily rate for leasing a cab but the hours were up to the lessees alone. Requirements imposed on the drivers were by the Airport as a regulatory agency, such as rules concerning starters at the airport taxi stands and the maintenance of trip sheets. such regulatory control imposed by the government does not evidence employer control.

Mississippi Statewide Title 77 of the 2018 Mississippi Code governs public utilities and carriers. Chapter 7 governs motor carriers and Chapter 8 governs Trans- portation Network Companies. Case History Yellow Cab (Yellow) sought to prevent Mississippi Coast Limousine (Coast) from airport access by virtue of possessing an exclusive con- tract with the airport authority. This qualified as a federal case because of diversity of citizenship between Yellow, from Louisiana, and Coast, from Mississippi, and because of federal interstate commerce jurisdiction. Coast had obtained a permit from the Interstate Com- merce Commission (ICC) to offer transportation between the New Orleans International Airport and the Mississippi Gulf Coast with trip distances ranging between 75- and 125-miles. In contrast, Yellow’s service was confined to the New Orleans metropolitan area. At issue is whether the local exclusive airport contract is in conflict with the federal interest in unfettered interstate commerce. The court also looked at four other factors: (1) discrimination against interstate in favor of intrastate commerce, (2) consistency with congressional policy, (3) clear federal legislative preemption, and (4) national scope. If airport access were denied, then Coast would have to drop-off passengers approximately one-half-mile away from the airport. The court found that ICC had the authority to permit interstate transportation to the airport, the exclusion of Coast was in conflict with congressional intent, and the burden on interstate commerce far outweighed any local interest to refuse Coast.

52 ACRP LRD 39 Missouri Statewide Chapter 10, Title 7 (Missouri Department of Transportation), of the 2019 Missouri Code of State Regulations governs motor carrier op- erations. Case History Brook’s Transport Company was denied a license to operate taxicabs at the St. Louis International Airport. At the time, St. Louis County code governed the issuance of licenses and the St. Louis County Council reviewed the license application and conducted a public hearing. The council considered the following factors, among others: (1) Was there demand for additional taxicabs; (2) Will the propose service cause a significant increase in traffic and parking congestion? (3) Will vehicle and pedestrian safety be preserved with the additional ve- hicle traffic? The Council found that the existing number of licenses were sufficient to serve the airport demand and decided to deny all new taxicab license applications. The Council found that other types of ground transportation, such as shuttles and light rail, had reduced the demand for taxis. There was also insufficient space at the airport to accommodate additional taxicabs. Even though this case centered on claims of discrimination, it recounted the relevant regulatory issues dealing with airport taxicab licensing. Gebru v. St. Louis County, 136 S.W.3d 89 (Mo.

Montana Statewide In the 2017 Montana Code, Title 61 governs motor vehicles and Title 69 governs public utilities and carriers. Case History Grouse Mountain Lodge (Grouse Mountain) operated four passenger vans to transport its guests between the lodge and the ski resort, downtown Whitefish, rail station, and Glacier International Airport. The Montana Public Service Commission (PSC) sought to declare Grouse Mountain as a motor carrier, thereby subjecting Grouse Mountain to PSC regulations. The court ruled that Grouse Mountain was not a motor carrier but, instead, provided accommodative transportation. The court pointed to several facts. Transportation was only incidental to the principal hotel business. Grouse Mountain did not advertise or offer transportation services to the general public, and the transportation was free to its guests. The court also explained that accommodative transportation was not a for-hire service, even though the persons transported may share in the cost of transportation. Grouse Mountain was therefore not subject to PSC regulations because it was not a motor carrier and the transportation provided was merely incidental to the lodging business.

Nebraska Statewide Chapter 60 of the 2018 Nebraska Revised Statutes governs motor vehicles. Case History A-1 Ambassador Limousine challenged the definition of the terms “limousine” and “limousine service” by the Nebraska Public Service Commission (PSC). PSC had issued the definition due to changes in the ground transportation industry. These changes include limou- sine providers using a variety of vehicles including regular sedans and vans, and passengers no longer equating limousines with luxury transportation. The new definition of “limousine” encompasses the characteristics of luxury transportation, prearranged trips, premium fare, seating of between 5 and 14, and partition between driver and passengers. The definition excludes airport/hotel buses or shuttles, taxicabs, sport utility vehicles, vans, and buses. The court held that the new definitions were reasonable and not arbitrary. In crafting this new definition, PSC had to balance the competing interests of protecting public interest and fostering competition. The striking of such a balance is a matter of legislative and administrative prerogative entrusted to the PSC. In Re Proposed Amend. to Title 291, ch. 3, 646 N.W.2d 650 (Neb., 2002).

Case History Gray Line Tours (Gray Line), a bus transportation company, claimed that its competitor, Las Vegas-Tonopah-Reno Stage Lines (LTR) had tortuously interfered with its business relationship with USA Hosts, a company that placed tourists and passengers. The bus companies provide bus and sightseeing transportation, including airport charters. LTR had induced USA Hosts to switch from Gray Line to LTR by offering a commission that was greater than the 10% allowed by the Nevada Public Service Commission (PSC). The PSC ordered LTR to cease and desist and collected the excess payments made to USA Hosts. The Nevada Supreme Court affirmed the lower court ruling that LTR knew that its illegal actions were substantially certain to interfere with Gray Line’s contract with USA Hosts.

New Hampshire Statewide Title 21 of the 2018 New Hampshire Statutes governs motor vehicles. Case History Drivers for the Amoskeag Airport Service (AAS) appeal the charges of operating a taxicab without a license from the City of Manchester. The drivers claimed that the local city ordinance requiring taxicab licenses were preempted by federal law. Specifically, the drivers claimed that the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) common carrier license was sufficient to authorize their operations. The court ruled against the drivers in sustaining the violation of unlicensed taxicabs. The federal statutory scheme on interstate transportation sought to coordinate transportation nationwide. However, Congress had intended for the federal government to cooperate with the States and to encourage States to exercise intrastate regulatory jurisdiction. Moreover, Congress had explicitly excluded federal jurisdiction over taxicab service in the statutory language. The FMCSA license authorized interstate transportation but not purely intrastate transportation that are unrelated to interstate services. State v. Bickford, 117 A.3d 686 (N.H., 2015).

ACRP LRD 39 61 New Jersey Statewide Regulation Title 39 of the 2019 New Jersey Statutes governs motor vehicles and traffic regulations. Case History Taxicab and limousine operators claimed an agreement between the City of Newark and Uber violated the Takings and Equal Protec- tion Clauses. Uber and Newark entered into an agreement in which Uber paid Newark $1 million per year and Uber would provide $1.5 million in liability insurance per driver and conduct driver background checks among other provisions. There were no takings because mere diminution in value of the medallions was insufficient to demonstrate a taking. Furthermore, the city controlled the number of me- dallions, and had the ability to increase the total number issued. On Equal Protection, there were significant differences between taxicab regulations and TNC regulations. For example, taxicab supply was limited by the number of medallions issued, vehicles must be serviced and inspected every six months and equipped with taximeters, and operation at EWR was prohibited until one-year after the taxi license issuance. However, the principles of equal protection were satisfied because there were rational reasons for regulating the two types of transportation services differently. The most significant difference was that TNC customers can only prearrange a ride and not street hail, and TNCs have a preexisting contractual relationship with passengers. Even though the agreement put the operators in a difficult financial situation, the situation could not be remedied via constitutional claims. Newark Cab Ass’n v.

ACRP LRD 39 63 New Mexico Statewide In the 2019 New Mexico Statutes, Chapter 65 governs motor carriers and Chapter 66 governs motor vehicles. Case History The City of Albuquerque contracted with a company to provide transportation to and from Albuquerque International Airport. The State Corporation Commission (Commission) claimed that it had the exclusive power to regulate common carriers and ordered the City to re- frain from proceeding with the contract. Taxicab companies intervened on behalf of the Commission in the litigation. The court examined the conflict between two New Mexico constitution provisions. N.M. Const. art. XI, § 7 granted the Commission exclusive power for regu- lating common carriers and determining matters of public convenience and necessity. N.M. Const., art. X, § 6 authorized municipalities to exercise all legislative powers not expressly forbidden by general law or charter. The court held that the City’s transportation contract was proprietary and not a governmental function and was within the City’s home rule authority. Section 6 was held to control because it was enacted later and was, thus, an implied modification of the earlier Section 7. Section 6 also includes language expressing that it should be construed liberally. City of Albuquerque v. New Mexico State Corp. Comm’n, 605 P.2d 227 (N.M., 1979).

64 ACRP LRD 39 New York Statewide In the 2019 Consolidated Laws of New York, Article 7 governs carriers of passengers by motor vehicles. Case History DLC Limousine Service (DLC) provides commercial ground transportation with most trips originating from the Westchester County Airport taxi stand. DLC drivers sought overtime compensation under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), 29 U.S.C. § 201 et seq., which requires employees to be paid one-and-a-half times the regular pay rate. The court held that DLC falls under the FLSA taxicab exemption and is not required to pay overtime. The court used three main factors for identifying taxicabs by reviewing a dictionary, statutory usage, and other legal sources such as the Department of Labor’s Field Operations Handbook. The factors are: (1) chauffeured passenger vehicle, (2) available for-hire by the general public, and (3) no fixed schedule, route, or termini. The fact the DLC has a few corporate contracts did not change DLCs overall character as a taxicab provider. Also, the fact that DLC cars lacked the “taxi” and “vacancy” signs did not go to the core of the taxicab business operation. Munoz-Gonzalez v. D.L.C.

Case History Universal Cab Company (Universal) alleged that Charlotte Douglas Airport’s (CLT) Aviation Director, the chair of Charlotte’s Community Safety Committee, and a member of the Charlotte Hospitality and Tourism Alliance, among others, had conspired to deny Universal a renewal of its taxi contract. Universal had provided taxi services at CLT for a long period of time but was not awarded a new taxi operating agreement after a request for proposals was issued by the City. The court held that Universal did not have standing as it failed to show that the claimed injury was due to defendants’ conduct.

ACRP LRD 39 67 North Dakota Statewide Chapter 39 of the 2019 North Dakota Century Code governs motor vehicles. Case History Gordon’s Taxi challenged the issuance of a special certificate of public convenience and necessity to a competitor, 1000 Cab Company, by the South Dakota Public Service Commission (PSC). A taxicab company that wishes to serve outside the City of Williston is required to obtain a special certificate of public convenience and necessity from the PSC. The taxi companies provided service to Wright Airport among other destinations. The court affirmed PSC’s decision to grant the certificate. The court noted that mere duplication of service does not constrain the PSC to deny the issuance of a certificate to another taxi provider. The PSC was granted the statutory authority to supervise and regulate all motor carriers. The main consideration in the issuance of certificates is the adequacy of service that is or could be furnished by transportation facilities. This determination is primarily an administrative question. PSC_Ditsworth, Application of, 48 N.W.2d 22 (N.D., 1951).

Case History Childers Limousine Service (Childers) had entered into an agreement with the Lucas County Port Authority to provide ground trans- portation to the Toledo Express Airport. Childers was to pay an annual concession fee along with a fee based on a percentage of the gross revenue. The agreement granted Childers the exclusive right to solicit passengers at the airport but did not restrict the Port Authority’s right to allow other transportation providers, such as hotel courtesy shuttles, from transporting passengers. A few years later, the Toledo Area Regional Transit Authority (TARTA) established a bus route and started to transport passengers to the airport. Childers had stopped paying fees claiming that the Port Authority had breached the exclusive contract. The court ruled that the Port Authority did not breach the contract, and Childers owed the unpaid fees. The Port Authority did not have the power to deny TARTA, a public transportation pro- vider, airport access. And TARTA did not engage in solicitation, the act prohibited by the contract.

Case History Bentley Hedges Travel had provided airport transportation for two passengers utilizing a bus purchased used from the Arkansas Bus Exchange (Arkansas Bus). The bus was not equipped with seatbelts. The bus was involved in a severe collision on the way to the airport where one passenger later died and the other was injured. Representatives of the passengers sued Bentley Hedges Travel for negligence and Arkansas Bus for strict product liability. They claimed that the product was defective and unreasonably dangerous because the bus was not

70 ACRP LRD 39 equipped with seatbelts, handholds, and secured luggage compartments. The court followed the majority of jurisdictions that held that strict liability does not extend to commercial used product sellers if the alleged defect was not created by the seller and the product was sold in the same condition as when it was acquired for resale. Here, Arkansas Bus had not modified the bus other than to perform regular maintenance such as changing the oil and replacing tires. The court also did not reach a determination on the previously unaddressed question of whether, under such circumstances, such a bus is determined to be defective. Allenberg v.

Case History In accordance with state statutes on unemployment insurance, Or. Rev. Stat. §657 et seq., an administrative law judge determined that Broadway Cab (Broadway) drivers performed services for Broadway and were employees and not independent contractors. As a result, Broadway was liable for unemployment insurance taxes on drivers’ wages. The court affirmed the administrative law judge’s decision. Even though the drivers’ agreement did not explicitly require that drivers provide services for Broadway, the agreements were premised on that assumption; drivers were only permitted through Broadway, all taxicabs were marked with Broadway’s scheme, and the significant fees necessitated that drivers drove a fair amount. Several factors pointed to the employee and not independent contractor classification. Drivers did not operate at a separate business location even though some drives owned their vehicles. Drivers did not have the authority to hire other persons to provide driving services. Broadway Cab LLC v. Emp’t Dep’t, 358 Or 431, (Or., 2015).

Pennsylvania Statewide In the 2019 Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, under Title 53 (Municipalities Generally), Chapter 57A govern transportation network companies and Chapter 57 governs taxicabs and limousines in first class cities. Case History The City of Philadelphia authorizes two types of taxicab services. Medallion taxicabs are authorized to provide call or demand service throughout the City while “partial rights taxicabs” are prohibited from serving certain areas such as the Philadelphia International Airport. The Pennsylvania General Assembly had granted dual jurisdiction over partial rights taxicabs to both the Philadelphia Parking Authority (PPA) and the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC). The PPA and the PUC had entered into an inter-jurisdictional agreement for regulating partial rights taxicabs. PPA’s regulations included vehicle mileage limits, vehicle inspections, vehicle partitions, driver cer- tification, annual renewal, and out-of-service designations. Various commercial ground transportation providers challenged the validity of this agreement on several grounds, including due process and equal protection. The court held that the agreement did not violate sub- stantive due process rights as the agreement simply stated that PUC cedes jurisdiction to PPA where dual jurisdiction exists. However, the court held that the regulations were unreasonable because the regulations ignored the differences between medallion and partial rights taxicabs. Such differences include service provided, clientele, geographic footprint, and business model. Bucks Cnty. Servs., Inc. v. Phila. Parking Auth., 71 A.3d 379 (Pa., 2018).

74 ACRP LRD 39 Rhode Island Statewide Title 39 of the 2018 Rhode Island General Laws governs public utilities and carriers. Case History A limousine driver, David Henderson, employed by All Occasion Transportation, Inc. (All Occasion), conveyed a passenger from Rhode Island to Logan Airport. While unloading baggage, Henderson was struck by a vehicle and badly injured. His employer’s insurance did not fully cover all the damages, so Henderson filed an underinsured motorist claim against his personal automobile insurer, Nationwide Insurance Company (Nationwide). The court held that Nationwide’s denial of the claim was lawful and consistent with public policy. The insurance contract included an exclusion that applied to a motor vehicle used to carry persons for fee. Henderson’s use of All Occasion’s limousine to carry passengers to the airport was a clear use of motor vehicle for fee. Although public policy generally favors indemnifica- tion of insureds for damage caused by uninsured motorists, it does not mean that insurers should be obligated to provide coverage in every circumstance.

South Carolina Statewide Title 58 of the 2018 South Carolina Code of Law governs public utilities, services, and carriers. Case History The South Carolina Supreme Court had pronounced a new test for determining whether a claimant was an employee or independent con- tractor, thus overruling the Dawkins test, Dawkins v. Jordan, 341 S.C. 434, 439 (2000). The Dawkins test had been employed for cases such as Yellow Cab Co., 349 S.C. 589 (2002). In Yellow Cab, a murdered taxicab driver was ruled to be an employee with the result that his estate was able to receive Workers’ Compensation benefits. Facts supporting the employee designation include many driver requirements such as no airport or dock operations, no dead-heading with nonpaying passengers, a company dress code, and maintenance of proper manifests. A fact supporting the independent contractor designation was the fixed-fee charged by Yellow Cab regardless of how much or how little a driver chooses to work per day. The Dawkins test that was overruled involved a framework where it unduly favored the weighing for the finding of employee status. Wilkinson v. Palmetto State Transp. Co., 382 S.C. 295 (S.C., 2009).

ACRP LRD 39 77 Tennessee Statewide Title 55 of the 2018 Tennessee Code governs motor and other vehicles. Case History Millennium Taxi Service (Millennium) sought to invalidate Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport Authority’s (CMAA) regulations in pro- hibiting unregistered taxicabs from curbside pickup. Millennium claimed that such regulations were discriminatory and unconstitu- tional. The court held that CMAA was authorized by the Tennessee Passenger Transportation Services Act to regulate commercial ground transportation at the airport, and the regulations had a rational basis and were not unreasonably discriminatory. The most significant regulations that were challenged were the different operating fees charged to different types of ground transportation, the queuing area restrictions, and the minimum vehicle age requirement. The court ruled that CMAA had a legitimate purpose in controlling curb access in order to manage flow effectively and to promote vehicular and pedestrian safety. CMAA also had a rational reason for limiting curbside operators in order to present to passengers those operators who are registered with CMAA with vehicles that are clean, relatively new, and in good repair.

Case History The Association of Taxicab Operators (Association) sought to invalidate Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport Board’s (Board) resolu- tion granting head-of-the-line privileges to taxicab operators who invest in compressed natural gas (CNG). Chapter 22 of Texas Statutes had granted various powers to the Board with respect to the airport. Tex. Transp. Code. Ann. § 22.014.

Case History Marlin Baer, an owner and operator of commercial ground transportation service at the Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC), failed to meet inspection and insurance requirements. Baer was issued four misdemeanor citations and was later arrested and jailed briefly for failure to appear at his arraignment. Four-years later, he filed a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 civil rights action against SLC. He sued the SLC ground transportation manager, SLC commercial vehicle inspector, SLC police, and county jail officer, among others, on a range of claims such as unlawful citation, unlawful search and seizure, unlawful arrest, negligence, harassment, and emotional distress. Underlying the claims were the allegations that, as a diabetic, he was denied food to regulate blood sugar levels and he was required to remove his clothing, exposing his religious undergarment as a Latter-day Saint. The court affirmed the lower court’s dismissal of the suit without a hearing as Baer failed to identify how the City defendants has personally participated in the denial of Baer’s rights. Baer v.

Case History The Metropolitan Washington Airport Authority (MWAA) had utilized funds from a toll road to support the construction of a metro service to the Dulles airport. Individuals challenged MWAA’s authority using various constitutional and statutory theories such as the non-delegation principle and statutory restrictions on funds being spent only on capital and operating costs of Washington, D.C. airports. MWAA was authorized by Virginia, D.C., and Congress to lease National and Dulles airports from the federal government by the Transfer Act, 49 U.S.C. §§ 49101 – 49112 (1986). The court first examined the threshold question of whether MWAA was a federal entity, thus sub- ject to the limitation of the Constitution. MWAA was found not to be a federal entity because it was not created explicitly for the further- ance of federal goals and was not controlled by federal appointees. The court also found that the establishment of MWAA did not violate the non-delegation principle which disallowed the delegation of powers granted by the agency upon which it is conferred. The court held that MWAA only exercised powers conferred by the state creators. The expenditure for metro construction did not violate the Transfer Act’s terms. The court weighed heavily the certification from the Secretary of Transportation that the metro expenditures did not violate the Transfer Act. Kerpen v. Metro. Wash.

Washington Statewide Title 46 of the 2018 Revised Code of Washington governs motor vehicles. Case History The Central Puget Sound Regional Transit Authority (Authority) was charged with the construction of light rail to the Sea-Tac Airport (SEA). The rail alignment passes through the Rainier Valley neighborhood at street level which is predominantly populated by minorities. Save Our Valley (SOV), a community group, filed a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 Civil Rights action against the Authority claiming the construc- tion would disproportionately affect minority residents by the takings of properties, displacement of community facilities, disruption of businesses, and increased safety problems. Section 1983 creates a cause of action against any persons who abridges rights, privileges, or immunities guaranteed by laws. The main issue addressed by the court was whether the Department of Transportation’s disparate-impact regulation, 42 U.S.C. § 2000d et seq., can create an individual federal right to enable the § 1983 mechanism to enforce rights. The court held that an agency regulation cannot create individual rights to be enforced through § 1983. Furthermore, the court held that the disparate- impact regulation, specifically, could not create such a right; it only effectuates a right already in existence. The court affirmed the district court’s summary judgment in ruling against SOV. Save Our Valley v. Sound Transit, 335 F.3d 932, (9th Cir., 2003).

88 ACRP LRD 39 West Virginia Statewide Chapter 24A of the2018 West Virginia Code governs commercial motor carriers. Case History Kanawha Valley Cab Paratransit, Inc., C & H Taxi, and other existing ground transportation providers challenged the issuance of a certifi- cate of public convenience and necessity at the Yeager Airport to Ray’s Baggage Delivery. The certificate was issued by an administrative law judge after a hearing and was affirmed by the Public Service Commission (PSC). The court reversed PSC’s decision denying the issu- ance of the certificate. The court explained that W.Va. Code 24A-2-5 requires the PSC to deny a certificate if it finds evidence at a public hearing that the existing transportation facilities are reasonably efficient and adequate. Airline representatives testified in favor of the certificate issuance explaining that an additional carrier was desirable because the existing taxi companies charged a higher rate than other common carriers for baggage delivery. However, they also testified that they never had any problems with the quality of existing service. The court held that the need for additional service cannot be solely based on the fact that a similar service costs less. Tincher v. Public Service Com’n of West Virginia, 379 S.E.2d 399 (W.

Case History Drivers for Quality Cab (Quality) appeal violations of Milwaukee County Ordinance 4.05 that prohibits the operation of taxicabs at the General Mitchell International Airport (MKE) without a MKE permit. The drivers claim that the ordinance is preempted by state law and invalidated by interfering with interstate commerce. The first issue concerns the permit requirement of taxicabs that service prearranged trips. Ordinance 4.05 does not require a permit for limousine that provide prearranged service. The court ruled that Ordinance 4.05 was in conflict with Wis. Stat. § 114.14(3)(b), which provides that the public may not be deprived of equal and uniform use of the airport. MKE’s justifications for requiring taxi permits were only applicable to curbside taxi and not prearranged service. Such justifications include re- ducing curbside and related congestion, improving taxi and customer wait times, and allowing the inspection of a limited number of curb- side taxis. The second issue concerns Ordinance 4.05 limiting the total number of permitted taxicabs at MKE. Wis. Stat. § 349.24(1).17 prohibits the local government from requiring taxicab operators and drivers from procuring a license once they are duly licensed by one local authority. The court ruled that Ordinance 4.05 was not in conflict with the state statute. The purpose of the state statute was to allow taxis to operate through cities without having to obtain a license in each one. In contrast, the purpose of Ordinance 4.05 was to promote safety and efficient ground transportation at MKE. The court vacated Quality’s convictions but also upheld MKE’s right to limit the num- ber of permitted curbside taxicabs. Having resolved the issue on state grounds, the court declined to address the Constitutional issues of interstate commerce interference. County of Milwaukee v. Williams, 732 N.W.2d 770 (Wis., 2007).
