PUBLIC HEARING - 6:15 P.M. - A public hearing was conducted for the purpose of granting a permit to operate a limousine service in the City of Jonesboro as requested by Mr. Randall Kisling. Mr. Kisling stated he wanted to operate his limousine service on the side, because he currently has another business. He explained he would be getting a 1999 Lincoln that would carry fewer than 15 passengers, and would leave from one location unlike a taxi service. City Attorney Crego stated even though the Jonesboro Code references “Vehicles for Hire” the intent by the City Council at the time was for taxi cab services, not limousine services.
