Update law on removing abandoned and wrecked vehicles from city property
In Plain English
The city's current rules for dealing with abandoned cars haven't been updated in years. The new law clarifies how the city identifies problem vehicles and removes them from streets and public areas. If approved, code enforcement gets clearer authority to tow abandoned cars that create safety hazards or eyesores.
