The City Clerk shall transmit each application for a license required by Section 868.02 to the Chief of Police, who shall cause an investigation to be made of the character, fitness and qualifications of the person applying for such license, and the fitness of the proposed taxicab or motor vehicle for hire. The Chief of Police shall thereupon transmit such application, together with his or her recommendation thereon, to the City Manager. If the City Manager determines that the person applying for such license is a suitable person, and that the vehicle proposed to be licensed is a suitable vehicle for the purposes for which it is intended to be used, the City Manager may grant a license therefor, to be issued upon the filing of the policy of insurance required by Section 868.10.
