Despite Ordinance
Just after passing the new
"taxi” ordinance which provides
for limitation of the number of
taxi licenses on grounds of "pub
lic convenience and necessity,”
the council split the issue by
granting 2 new licenses and de

meeting Monday.
The ordinance was passed af
ter conferences with Teamster’s
Union officials, who asked that
no additional licensees granted
at this time.
The two licenses granted went
to Raymond Sears, union mem
ber, for an additional cab to be
driven by William Suender, just
released from the Navy here, and
to William Frame, former resi
dent just returned to Kodiak.
Both passed by 4 votes, with
Councilmen King, Nelson, Pierce
and Wodlinger in the affirma

who drew up the ordinance,
and Martz, in the negative.
