Article IX. Vehicle Removal |
§ 10.52.950. Hearing—Government liability.
The registered owner of a motor vehicle at his/her request is entitled to have a speedy hearing to determine if the vehicle in question was properly parked and thus improperly towed. The city court shall attempt to have a hearing on such matter as soon as all parties can be present, preferably on the day the towing occurred; but in no instance shall the hearing be any later than three business days after the towing has occurred. If it is the court's determination that the vehicle was properly parked and that the towing was improper, then the city court may order the parking commission or city-county to bear the costs of removal and storage.
