Cab Company Seeks Subsidy To Avoid Service Cutbacks
Norwalk cab operator Ray Fuller warns the city that without subsidies the company will abandon service after a 15 day notice. He cites daily losses of 50 to 70 dollars and calls for council and chamber meetings to discuss aid while noting Tiffin’s higher call volume and elderly riders depend on cabs. He also contrasts local demand with Norwalk’s car ownership and argues banks’ liberal loan policies hinder fleet growth.
