Chapter 10.34A For-Hire Transportation
Section 10.34A.170 Audits
- To ensure compliance with this chapter, the licensing officer may, no more than two (2) times per calendar year, conduct audits to inspect records concerning up to twenty-five (25) drivers randomly selected by the licensing officer who are affiliated with, associated with, or employed by the for-hire operator and who have licensed with the city of Spokane in the last calendar year.
- To comply with this section, within twenty (20) calendar days of receiving a written request from the licensing officer to review records required to be kept by this chapter, the for-hire operator receiving the request must transmit the requested records to the licensing officer via a secure delivery method, which may, at the for-hire operator’s discretion, include the use of electronically encrypted delivery or a secure commercial delivery service.
- Notwithstanding the restrictions of SMC 10.34A.170(A), the City (whether through the licensing officer or law enforcement) may require a for-hire operator to produce records directly related to an active investigation or a specific complaint or allegation of a violation of this chapter, pursuant to applicable law.
- Noncompliance with this section is sufficient cause for the licensing officer to suspend the operator’s license until the operator comes into compliance.
- With the exception of reports of crimes against or by drivers, all records furnished by a for-hire operator to the licensing officer for audit purposes shall exclude information that would personally identify specific passengers.
