Full Breakdown

110, Towing authorized, states that in addition to the fines adopted in the consolidated fee schedule and all other penalties authorized by law, and at the expense of the owner, any vehicle or trailer parked in violation of this article may be towed to impound. 10, Article III (commercial, recreational and agricultural vehicle parking), Article I (general no-parking zones and obstruction of traffic), and Article II (winter parking restrictions), giving the city a single removal mechanism across all of its street parking rules. 010(C) protects a tow truck motor carrier responding to a customer service call from the section's own no-parking and no-standing restrictions, so long as the tow operator has already received authorization from the local law enforcement agency with jurisdiction over the vehicle being towed.

120, which authorizes city enforcement officers to take action, including towing, consistent with the fines and procedures set out in the consolidated fee schedule. The provision does not separately license or regulate towing companies as businesses; it addresses only the city's authority to have an illegally parked vehicle removed and the towing exemption for operators already dispatched by police.

A vehicle or trailer parked in violation of Chapter 10.10 may be towed to impound at the owner's expense in addition to fines under the consolidated fee schedule, per EMMC 10.10.110 and 10.10.120.
