Anchorage cab customers will have to pay a dollar extra using a credit card in a cab

Anchorage Assembly voted on Ordinance 2016-132 and 2016-140 at the December 20th meeting to add a $1 charge for credit card customers to help the cab companies off set the cost of processing credit cards.  This will happen til probably sometime in March or April 2017.  To avoid this charge you can always pay cash when getting a cab.  Most customers will not even notice the charge.
