No owner or operator of a taxicab shall charge a rate or fare more than that established by the schedule filed with the City Commission. Whenever the owner or operator desires to increase any rate or fare, he shall petition the City Commission for authority to do so.
(b) There shall be exhibited in each taxicab, while it is in operation, such schedule of rates for services as is filed with the City Commission. The rate schedule shall be placed in a conspicuous place in the taxicab where it is plainly visible to taxicab patrons at all times.
