City Council finalizes service agreement with Kingston taxi commission

Councillors warned future renewals won't happen unless the commission provides an audited financial statement.

Kingston city council has renewed its service agreement with the Kingston and Area Taxi Commission—but not without concerns.

The commission hasn’t provided audited financial statements for the last three years, something it’s required to do. 

Councillors warned future renewals won’t happen without those audits.

The commission says the paperwork should be submitted by year’s end, blaming delays on turnover and outdated systems.

A portion of each taxi fare, 27 cents, supports equipment accessible transportation.
