Section 635.020
[R.O. 2014 §635.020; Ord. No. 1613 §1, 3-13-2014] In order to regulate taxicabs and to protect the peace, safety and welfare of the residents of the City of Marshfield, it shall be unlawful for any person to engage in the business of operating a taxicab for the purpose of transporting passengers for hire without first obtaining a license to engage in such business in accordance with the provisions of Section 605.020.

Any change of owner or operator shall require a new application and license with payment of fees therefor. Failure to pay such fee shall be grounds for refusing to accept and process an application for a license.
