The New York City Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC), created in 1971, is the agency responsible for licensing and regulating
New York City's medallion (yellow) taxicabs, for-hire vehicles (community-based liveries and black cars), commuter vans, paratransit
vehicles (ambulettes) and certain luxury limousines. The Commission's Board consists of nine members, eight of whom are unsalaried
Commissioners. The salaried Chair/Commissioner presides over regularly scheduled public Commission meetings, and is the head of the
agency, which maintains a staff of approximately 400 TLC employees assigned to various divisions and bureaus. The Hon. Matthew W. Daus
was named as Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani's designee to the Chair of the TLC in June 2001 and was unanimously confirmed by the New York City
Council on August 22, 2001. He was then reappointed by Mayor Bloomberg in July 2003 and was again unanimously confirmed by the New York City
Council on July 23, 2003.
The TLC licenses and regulates over 50,000 vehicles and approximately 100,000 drivers, performs safety and emissions inspections of the
more than 13,000 medallion taxicabs three times each year, and holds numerous hearings for violations of City and TLC rules and regulations,
making it the most active taxi and limousine licensing regulatory agency in the United States.To find out more about the TLC, or to review
