Ind. Gov't. - More on "Ordinance on predatory towing passed: Fees capped, other limits placed on companies after complaints of excesses"

This July 19, 2011 ILB entry reported that the Indy City-County Council has passed an ordinance on predatory towing.

You can find the new ordinance here, on the City's code enforcement page.

Today WTHR 13 report
s that:

The mayor of Indianapolis has launched a new plan after Eyewitness News anchor Andrea Morehead exposed unfair towing from private parking lots.
Maybe I'm missing something, but the "new plan" looks like the July 19th ordinance.

[More at 9:06 pm] Okay, this clears it up, Fox 59 is reporting: "City announces hotline, email to address towing complaints."

The hotline number is 327-TOWS or you can email tows@indy.gov to report an issue. If you report an issue make sure to name the date, location and time of the tow in question, as well as leave your contact information.
