[2] Editor's Note: See Ch. A25, Fees.

(3) After hearing.

(a) Finding of lawful authority. If the hearing officer conducts a hearing and determines that lawful authority existed for the impoundment of the motor vehicle:

(K) Implementation. From time to time, the Chief of Police shall promulgate the necessary notices, forms, and rules as may be required for the implementation of the provisions of this section.
