[Amended 11-9-2010 by Ord. No. MC 3428]
A. Registration of vehicles. Any vehicle towed from a parking area in
the Township must be checked in and registered at the Irvington Public
Safety Department on Civic Square in the Township. It will not be
required for the Irvington Police to first issue a summons before
said vehicle is towed.
[Amended 10-14-2015 by Ord. No. MC 3553]
B. Owners' issuance of identification. The owner of the parking
space assigned and/or leased to a resident must provide the resident
with an identification card or placard for the particular space which
has been designated as his or her official parking space. The resident
who rents and/or leases the space may notify and request vehicle to
be towed from their space if such is not authorized to park in same.
Upon the arrival of the towing company, the resident must show official
proof that such space has officially been assigned or designated to
him or her. The owner or his agent maintains the right to have the
vehicle towed, also if same is not authorized to be parked in the
space in question.
No car can be towed from private property unless it violates
existing parking regulations, i.e., fire lane, driveway or abandoned,
etc.
Absence of a valid parking permit as issued by the property
owner does not constitute valid grounds for towing if the owner of
the car lives at that location, the car is registered at that location
and the car is otherwise properly parked.

No. MC 3257; 12-29-2009 by Ord. No. MC 3413; 8-14-2012 by Ord. No. MC 3469; 9-11-2012 by Ord. No. MC 3471]
