Ride-sharing services such as Uber and Lyft could operate in Galena in the near future. City Council members this week approved the first reading for an ordinance that would allow ride-sharing companies in the city, though neither Uber nor Lyft has committed to coming. Ride-sharing services currently are not permitted in Galena. There are currently two taxi-cab companies in Galena. City Administrator Mike Moran says he has reached out to both Uber and Lyft. While Lyft has responded, neither has committed to coming to Galena. While Galena is smaller in population than cities in which ride-sharing services typically operate, Moran said he intends to market the city’s high number of tourists.
