<P><BR><BR>February 21, 2007<BR>American Thinker<BR>Update: Minneapolis Airport
taxi mess<BR>Ethel C. Fenig<BR>All you frequent (and not so frequent) flyers
into Minneapolis-<WBR>St Paul Airport<BR>no longer have to worry<BR>about
getting a cab if you're carrying a closed package of liquor or guided by
a<BR>seeing eye dog. But why should they have had problems?<BR>Because Moslem
taxi drivers, claiming these items violated their religion,<BR>refused to
transport them<BR>.<BR>After a loud, public protest campaign the Minneapolis
Airport Commission established<BR>guidelines, fining drivers who refused
potential customers. Now they're seeking<BR>public --<BR>that's you! -- input
for stricter penalties.<BR>A public hearing will begin at 2 p.m. on Tuesday,
February 27, 2007, to solicit testimony<BR>from the public on the proposed
increase in penalties. Hearing officers will likely<BR>break for dinner at 5 and
return at 6 for additional testimony. The hearing will<BR>take place at
the<BR>Ramada Mall of America (formerly known as the Thunderbird Hotel)<BR>2300
East American Boulevard<BR>Bloomington, Minnesota.<BR>Anyone with an interest in
the issue is welcome to provide verbal or written testimony<BR>at the
hearing.<BR>The public hearing record will remain open from the date of the
hearing until 12<BR>p.m., Friday, March 2, 2007 for people who want to provide
written comments regarding<BR>the proposed ordinance change. Comments should be
addressed to:<BR>Landside Operations Department<BR>Metropolitan Airports
Commission<BR>MSP International Airport/Lindbergh Terminal<BR>4300 Glumack
Drive<BR>Suite LT-3129B<BR>Saint Paul, MN 55111-3010.<BR>The Metropolitan
Airports Commission board will consider input from the public in<BR>making a
decision on any changes to our taxi ordinance and penalties.<BR>Again, thank you
for taking time to share your concerns on this issue. Feel free<BR>to visit our
Web site,<BR>www.mspairport.<WBR>com<BR>, for more information.
Minneapolis-<WBR>St. Paul International Airport has long been<BR>recognized as a
leader in airport customer service. We are working to ensure cab<BR>service at
the airport meets or exceeds our customers' expectations as well.<BR>Posted at
