Vehicles which present a hazard, are parked in Tow Zones, Fire Lanes, blocking sidewalks, crosswalks, dumpsters or are parked in a Handicap space without displaying government issued authorization are subject to immediate towing at the owner's expense. A vehicle which accrues three parking tickets will be considered a chronic offender and will be ticketed and towed for every subsequent violation.
