the vehicle. Costs not recovered for the sale of the vehicle may be
recovered by civil action by the Town against the owner.
E. Notice of sale or disposition. Within five days after the sale or disposal of a vehicle in Subsection
C above, the Chief of Police or duly authorized representative shall advise the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, Division of Motor Vehicles, of such sale or disposition on a form supplied by the Division.
