DeKALB – A number of limousine companies will operate illegally without a license as they try to reconcile and change an ordinance regulating them.

The owners of Hayes Limousine Service, Blue Sky Limousine and DeKalb-O’Hare Limousine Service met with city officials Wednesday to discuss the issues and complaints they had with an ordinance that regulates limos in the same manner as taxicab companies.

Pete Hayes of Hayes Limousine described the meeting as productive, but added he would continue to take customers even though the 60-day grace period for existing companies expired Monday.
