A new taxi coupon program will give recipients twenty-five taxi coupons per month. Each coupon is worth $2.00, and they can be used for going to services like medical appointments, salons or barber shops, the grocery store, and the library among other destinations. Applicants must meet low- to moderate income guidelines as defined by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The coupons are aimed to help low-income, elderly, and disabled Bentonville residents.
