COUNCIL STRATEGIC INITIATIVE ADDRESSED:
Strenghen economic conditions & create new opportunities

CITY ATTORNEY REVIEW: REQUIRED
SUMMARY STATEMENT:
Certain major TNCs, including Uber and Lyft have indicated that they are unwilling to operate in Longview under the current provisions of the Longview Municipal Code (VMC) at Chapter 5.81.

Staff has reviewed the Pullman regulations and find that they provide adequate protection to the public, taxi and TNC operators and do not risk public safety. Representatives of Uber and Lyft have reviewed the draft ordinance and indicated a willingness to begin operations in Longview following adoption. In addition, the draft ordinance was provided to Uptown and Owl Taxi for review. Certain changes were made in response to that review, keeping insurance requ | | |

| 1 | | | Agenda Item | RESOLUTION NO. 2265 - UTILITY RATE REDUCTION PROGRAM
COUNCIL STRATEGIC INITIATIVE ADDRESSED:
Council Initiative: Continue effective financial management
CITY ATTORNEY REVIEW: REQUIRED
SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The Council has established a utility rate reduction program for low-income senior citizens and low-income disabled citizens of the City. Annually, low income senior and low-income disabled citizens on the City’s rate reduction program are asked to re-apply so that staff can ascertain whether or not they still qualify. In years past, a number of program participants have received modest annual increases in income that, in many instances may have caused them to exceed the limit in effect, and therefore could have resulted in some of the participants losing the rate reduction benefit. These increases in income are largely the result of inflationary increases granted by the Social Security Administration.
In most instances, the modest cost-of-living increases granted by Social Security are not sufficient to offset the utilit | | |
