        BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA: 
           Section 1.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 221.121, is 
        amended by adding a subdivision to read: 
           Subd. 6h.  [CHARTER CARRIERS ENTIRELY WITHIN SAINT PAUL.] A 
        person who provides regular route passenger service using 
        trolley-type vehicles exclusively within Saint Paul and who 
        seeks to operate as a charter carrier using trolley-type 
        vehicles exclusively within the city shall file a petition with 
        the commissioner requesting such authority.  The board shall 
        grant the permit upon the petitioner's compliance with the law 
        and rules relating to charter carrier permits if it finds that 
        the petitioner's vehicles meet the safety standards prescribed 
        by the commissioner and that the petitioner is fit and able to 
        conduct the proposed operations.  A permit issued under this 
        subdivision authorizes charter carrier operation only within 
        Saint Paul. 
           Sec. 2.  [EFFECTIVE DATE.] 
           Section 1 is effective the day following final enactment.
