These changes have the potential to impact both taxi drivers and passengers alike.

Understanding Taxi Medallions

Taxi medallions are permits issued by the city that allow individuals or companies to operate taxis legally. They are often limited in number, creating a market with limited supply and high demand. The proposed changes to the rules governing these medallions aim to address various concerns and adapt to the needs of the changing transportation landscape.

Proposed Changes and Implications
