Baytown considers uniform taxi rates with Houston plan
Baytown officials debate tying local taxi and tow rates to Houston standards to simplify pricing. Proponents say uniform rates could attract more cabs though harming local operators, while opponents fear slower response times and higher costs. Towing firms push for rate increases due to fuel costs, with a council vote planned after a 4:45 p.m. workshop ahead of the 6:30 p.m. meeting.
