Taxi Company Requests Fare Increase

Co-ot taxi taxi is asking city council to approve a rate increase.

Eric Lovas made a deputation at last nights council meeting and says that a fare increase has not happened in a couple years.

Lovas adds that the fare increase would only amount to an average of a one dollar  on most fares and will help manage the cost of rising gas prices and the cost of insurance.

Loviss adds that the starting rate would increase to 4.95 and a kilometer rate would go up to2 dollars.
