The DC Taxicab Commission (DCTC) has scheduled a Public Hearing from 11 am to 3 pm on Thursday, July 30, 2015, at 2235 Shannon Place, SE, Washington DC 20020, in the Hearing Room, Suite 2023.

This is the second Panel on Industry (POI) hearing which will continue the focus on a broad study of the DC taxicab marketplace and to adopt a framework for rulemaking.

The priority will be on whether the Commission should lift the moratorium of H-tags, and if so, under what circumstances and requirements.
