4 WESTCHESTER COUNTY TAXI AND LIMOUSINE COMMISSION FORMED IN 1997 UNDER COUNTY EXECUTIVE- ANDREW O’ROURKE COMMISSIONER/CHAIR- BARBARA Z. MONOHAN Commissioner Monohan put rules and regulations in place that would emulate New York City Taxi and Limousine Commission Rules and Regulations Westchester County Taxi and Limousine Commission begins licensing and summonsing out-of-county operators who pick up in Westchester County and are not licensed by Westchester County Westchester County operators are also being summonsed in New York City for picking up if they do not have a Tier II License The move toward reciprocity begins

5 NEW YORK CITY ENTERS INTO RECIPROCITY AGREEMENT WITH WESTCHESTER COUNTY IN 2000 FOR PICK-UP AND/OR DROP-OFF The agreement comes about after nine months of wrangling and many instances of New York City For-Hire Vehicles being seized and summonsed on blocked highways leading into Westchester County The agreement has a five year sunset clause New York City and Westchester County are finally on the same page The agreement allows for pick-ups and drop-offs but not for point-to-point
