Missouri Revised Statutes Title VI. County, Township and Political Subdivision Government § 67.1820. Commission to establish annual budget to enforce taxicab code

The regional taxicab commission shall initially establish, subject to public hearings thereon, an annual fee-generated budget required for the effective implementation and enforcement of the taxicab code, taking into account staffing requirements and related expenses as well as all revenue sources, including collection of fees previously paid to and unspent by other enforcing jurisdictions and future fees projected to be collected by the commission. Recognizing the elimination of duties and costs associated with the regulatory and enforcement functions of taxicab administration previously borne by the city and county and being assumed by the commission, the city and county shall have the authority to appropriate additional budgetary funding for the commission's needs.
