Finance Committee Recommends Tow-Provider Licensing and Rotation System

Article 11 would create a tow service provider license and rotation framework (committee discussed a limit of six licenses) and grant the police chief authority to implement the rotation. Finance staff summarized the rotation and selection process, and members asked staff to confirm whether an annual license fee is included and why the number of licenses is limited.

Committee members noted similar licensing systems have drawn scrutiny elsewhere and asked staff to confirm any fee structure and the pool of potential tow companies; after discussion, the committee recommended Article 11 by unanimous voice vote.
