Minneapolis Council Members Signal Openness to Compromise Over Rideshare Pay Rules

Most Minneapolis City Council members now open to changing recently approved rideshare ordinance that prompted Uber and Lyft to threaten leaving
Issue is council set minimum pay requirements for drivers higher than Uber/Lyft say is worthwhile
Council hopes to get Minneapolis-specific data to determine what lower minimum pay levels could still ensure drivers earn minimum wage
Uber/Lyft reacted positively to council's openness to compromise, suggested specific lower numbers they would accept
Tensions high on council as members made plans to reconsider ordinance without informing each other, upset over lack of communication
