Background

King County and the City of Seattle are seeking proposals from interested taxicab driver groups for issuance of 15 dual (city and county) Wheelchair Accessible Taxicab (WAT) licenses.

King County and the City of Seattle have determined there is a need for additional WAT service in areas served by City and County licensed taxicabs and there is a need for dual-licensed WAT for improved service response times for disabled customers.

The dual WAT licenses which may be awarded pursuant to this RFP are to provide taxicab service to both passengers using mobility devices and ambulatory passengers. The taxicabs will be allowed to pick up passengers in Seattle, unincorporated King County, and cities located in King County that have signed an interlocal agreement with King County for taxicab regulation, including Auburn, Bellevue, Burien, Covington, Enumclaw, Federal Way, Issaquah, Kenmore, Kent, Kirkland, Maple Valley, SeaTac, Redmond, Renton, Sammamish, and Shoreline.

A pre-submittal conference to discuss questions related to this RFP shall be held at 3 PM on June 7, 2010, in conference room 121/123 on the 1st Floor of The Chinook Building, 401 Fifth Avenue, Seattle, WA 98104.
