Why is the city considering more regulations for Taxi service?

I am not sure what the cab companies in Sioux Falls think of the new proposed regulations on them, Document: taxi

But, I am sure we will be hearing from them. Maybe they proposed them, but doubtful. It seems the city has to find work for one of their 3 people they had to hire to replace Debra Owen. Like I said, there needs to be some kind of regulation for SOME businesses, but I am still puzzled that the city can regulate a private industry this much. I especially got a chuckle out of this proposal;

I am sure the cab companies already have guidelines. Probably not as stringent as the city would like. Like I said above, why does the city want to get involved with a PRIVATE industry and who they hire? It kinda seems they are sticking their nose where it doesn’t belong. We have plenty of choices in this town for cab service. If you feel like they have treated you unfairly, use another service the next time. Isn’t the free market a beautiful thing? Apparently the city doesn’t think so.
