Rendon proposal will actually make the Anchorage taxicab industry a true monopoly

Rendon proposal will make the Anchorage Taxicab Industry into a real monopoly that the Anchorage Taxicab Permit Associations claims they are not.  One problem with Rendon proposal.  Permit owner do not own their permits the Anchorage Municipality does.  He says that he should be paid $23 million by city taxpayers with money for annual staffing.  Problem is Title 11 only would give $230,000 with no money for staffing.  This also would give him control of the Anchorage Taxicab market this would be a monopoly.  This would allow him to jack up the price for Anchorage customers.  Bad for the consumer no competition which is something that the Anchorage Taxicab Permit Owner Association would rather have complete control.  This would not benefit Anchorage the cab industry.  Please attend the Anchorage Transportation Commission meeting on Monday, October 26th at 6pm at Loussac Library speak against the Rendon proposal this is bad for industry.  Would not benefit customers, indusry, travelers and the public.  This would create higher prices on the industry and Anchorage customers.
