The above is why this is completely the cities fault. It shouldn't take uber wanting to enter the market for them to look at fixing the taxi problem.
The city have had multiple studies saying taxis are fine. Independent of ubers existence the city has incompetently handled the taxi issue.
So yes the cities response to uber is what they had to say however where has the city been the last 10 years on the issue. They deserve all of the flack they are getting for being incompetent or being corrupt
