Recommend 5�000 fine. CAR O6/18/2002 Letter from Roger Curtis stating that the proposed notification change suggested by the licensee in a letter dated OS/2�/2002 is not permitted without a chan9e to the ordinance. The suggestion will be fonvarded to fhe SPPD. The existing language was changed 2t the SPPD's request approximately 4 years ago. SCS O5/21/2002 Letter received frwn Steve R. Rulzick & Assoc, licensee's attomey, regarding violatlon pertaining to the notification of vehicles prior to towing. Licensee is eager tc work with the City to establish a logistically viable policy. They propose a change in the nofifiration from the point of hook-up of a vehicle unfil the pcl-: of artival of the vehicle at the impound facility. The change is suggested for the folliwing reasons: 'I ) Ezses c�nfusion and caliing channei 5 twice in tne event th2t the owner artives and pays the prescribed "drop fee" prior to the removal of vehicle; 2) Allow licensee to operate efficiently, especially in cases which channei 5 is experiencing technical difficulties or a high volume of calls during snow storms, or tending to fhe business of dispatching emergency services. This would allow channel 5 fhe ability to operate efficienfly, taking care of their priorities first, especially when utilizing notification by fax; 3) The policy would eliminate scenarios in which the licensee's employees are placed in grave danger while vraiting for channel 5 to clear a vehicle, allowing them to hook a car and leave the premises immediately; 4) In the event that the vehicie is tolen, it wiil have been removed to a secure faciliry eliminatlng the possibility of the vehiGe being driven away prior to the arrival of the SPPD, as licensee cannot be expected to safely or effectiveiy secure the vehicle in the meantime: 5) As to the integrity of "crime scenes," lice�see's employees never enter vehicles in the performance of their dut�es. All cars towed for the City during snow emergencies are not scrutinized until after the tow has been completed; and 6) It would allow the SPPD to respond in a timeframe that would best suit fheir needs. They could clear the vehicie and notify the owner as to the location of the vehicle. The owner could pick up their vehicle at tFie licensee's property, relieving congestion at the impound lot. The notification would occur immediately upon arrivai at the impound `acility by either teiephone or fax. The licensee would agree to hold all vehicles pending their Gearance through the SPPD. SS OS/21/2002 $50.00 rcvd for fine. ES OS/09/2002 Sent Fin= letter (�50 due 5/31/02). LAB 05/0'I/2002 CF 02-357 assessed a fine of $50. SCS 03/28/2002 Notice of Violation from CAO recommending adverse action due to several vehicles towed without first notiTying the SPPD and checking to see if they were stolen as stated in SPLC 36�.08. Recommendation is $1,000 fine. Must respond by 04/11/2002. SS 03/20/2002 To CAO for adverse action. LIEP is requesling a$1000 fne, and stayed 30 day license suspension with no same or similar. CAR 03/12/2002 Received letter irom SPPD indicating that Rapid Recovery is not notifying the police department of tows before the tow is made. This is a violation of the legislative code.
