Dear Sergeant Minger:
Re: Taxicab Driver's Permit - Special Police Officer
Effective June 19, 1975, Chapter 1, Title 28 of the Code of Federal
Regulations, part 20, established minimum standards for dissemination
of criminal histories. The regulations affect any manual or automated
system funded in whole or in part with funds made avail~le by the
Law Enforcement Assistance Administration.
The minimum requirements must deny employment, licensing, or other civil
rights and privileges to persons convicted of a crime, or require a
criminal record check prior to employment or licensing.
After review of ordinances 2888 and 2988, it does not appear that either
meet the minimum requirement as set forth; denial of license for con-
viction of a crime or require criminal check.
The ordinance submitted for public bathhouses, massage parlors, attendants,
etc., will be retained at the Section and applicant card submissions
accepted, as the ordinance specifically states licensing will be denied
for prior convictions; however, the taxicab and s?E~l police office~
ordinances will need to be amended, or poss~ly new ordinances drafted
before meeting the established criteria.
If we may be of assistance, please do not hesitate to call upon us.
Sincerely,
W L / ACHO Ea,
