Chair Feliz explains centralized towed-vehicle database replacing old procedures
Chair Feliz says the bill would require the city to create and maintain a centralized online database for vehicles towed from public or private property by city or licensed private tow operators. He explains it would replace confusing existing procedures where owners search competing databases or call local police precincts.
This bill will require the city to create and maintain a centralized online database that allows a member of the public to search for information related to vehicles that have been towed from public or private property by the city or licensed private tow operator.
This centralized database will replace existing procedures that often frustrate vehicle owners, where individuals must search competing toll databases or contact the local police precinct to locate vehicles towed within the city.
