Old trike franchisees, new applicants get fair shake from CLO
OLD tricycle-for-hire franchise holders and new applicants can now transact with the City Legal Office (CLO) for the renewal and issuance of their Provisional Authority to Operate.
The CLO has released the application procedure for tricycle franchise applicants pursuant to City Ordinance No. 1849-2005 known as the Revised Tricycle Franchise of 2005.
Old franchise holders with pending application at the CLO should secure the following requirements: barangay clearance, fiscal’s clearance, insurance, professional driver’s license of authorized driver, police clearance, voter’s certification, latest mayor’s permit (for renewal only), court clearance and official receipt/certificate of registration of unit.
New applicants are also advised to prepare the said requirements.
“They must also coordinate with the accredited United Tricycle Operators and Drivers Association (UTODA) to ensure proper compliance with all the requisites,” City Legal Officer Geraldine Baniqued said.
The sangguniang panlungsod passed Ordinance No. 1849-2005 to provide an effective measure for a systematic, balanced and disciplined transport system.
The new ordinance amended Ordinance No. 1411-92 entitled: “Prescribing the Rules, Regulations and Procedures Governing the Grant of Franchises for the Operation of Tricycles-for-Hire within the Territorial Jurisdiction of the City of Dagupan.”
The revised ordinance strictly implements the one-unit-per-operator policy in the issuance of new franchise or renewal of the same, even as the available slots, within the 3,800 units, shall be granted to applicants on first-come-first-served basis.
