City Council puts cap on towing fees

The City Council voted 5-3 Tuesday night to put a cap on costs of non-consensual towing within city limits.

The new law, however, does not regulate how much towing companies can charge for working after hours to return vehicles to their owners.

“I don’t think we need to regulate everything,” Councilwoman Carol Berz said just before the vote.

Councilman Jack Benson and Peter Murphy and Councilwoman Deborah Scott all voted against the measure.

Fees are now set at $175 in the day and $185 at night.
