I. 
Notification of owner.
(1) 
Not more than 48 hours after impoundment of a motor vehicle, the Police Department shall mail a notice to the registered owner of the vehicle and to any other person who claims the right of possession of the vehicle. The notice shall be mailed to the registered owner at the address provided by the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles or the corresponding agency of any other state. If a police officer, who has knowledge of the impoundment, has reason to believe that an owner is residing at some different address which is known to the officer, a copy of the notice shall also be mailed to such owner in a manner designated as nearly practicable, to give actual notice. The notice shall contain particulars of the impoundment, redemption, and opportunity to contest the propriety of the impoundment as hereinafter provided.
(2) 
Similar notice shall be given to each person who seeks to redeem an impounded vehicle, except that notice need not be mailed as provided in Subsection I(1) if a vehicle is redeemed prior to the mailing of such a notice.
J. 
Redemption of impounded vehicles. Vehicles impounded by the Village shall be redeemed only under the following circumstances:
(1) 
Only the registered owner, a person authorized by the registered owner, or one who has purchased a vehicle from the registered owner, who produces proof of ownership or authorization and signs a receipt therefor, may redeem an impounded vehicle.
(2) 
Any person so redeeming a vehicle impounded by the Village shall pay to the towing contractor the costs of impoundment (towing and storage) prior to redeeming such vehicle, except as provided for by Subsection M. Such costs shall not exceed $35 by reason of towing such vehicle and $5 storage charges per day or fraction thereof.
K. 
Post-impoundment hearing. As to any vehicle impounded pursuant to this chapter by, or at the request of the Village of Sloatsburg, its agents or employees, a person who has a legal entitlement to possession of the vehicle has a right to a post-seizure administrative hearing to determine whether there was probable cause to impound the vehicle if such person files a written demand with the Village of Sloatsburg within 10 days after such person has learned such vehicle has been impounded or with 10 days after the mailing of the date set in the notice specified in Subsection I, whichever occurs first.
L. 
Conduct of hearing.

A hearing shall be conducted before a hearing officer, designated by the Mayor within 48 hours of receipt of a written demand therefor from the person seeking the hearing unless such person waives the right to a speedy hearing. Saturdays, Sundays and Village Holidays are to be excluded from the calculation of the forty-eight-hour period. The hearing officer shall be someone other than the person who directed the impounding and storage of the vehicle. The sole issue before the hearing officer shall be whether there was probable cause to impound the vehicle in question.
(2) 
"Probable cause to impound" shall mean such a state of facts as would lead a person of ordinary care and prudence to believe that there was violation of this chapter.
(3) 
The hearing officer shall conduct the hearing in an informal manner and shall not be bound by technical rules of evidence. The person demanding the hearing shall carry the burden of establishing that such person has the right to possession of the vehicle. The Police Department shall carry the burden of establishing that there was probable cause to impound the vehicle in question.
(4) 
At the conclusion of the hearing, the hearing officer shall prepare a written decision. A copy of such a decision shall be provided to the person demanding the hearing and the registered owner of the vehicle (if not the person requesting the hearing). The hearing officer's decision in no way affects any criminal proceeding in connection with the impound in question and any criminal charges involved in such proceeding may only be challenged in the appropriate court. The decision of the hearing officer is final. Failure of the registered or legal owner, or their agent to request or attend a scheduled post-seizure hearing shall be deemed a waiver of the right to such hearing.
M. 
Decision of the hearing officer. The hearing officer shall only determine that as to the vehicle in issue either a) there was probable cause to impound the vehicle or b) there was no such probable cause. In the event that the hearing officer determines that there was no probable cause, the hearing officer shall prepare and date a certificate of no probable cause, copies of which shall be given to the possessor of the vehicle and the Police Department. Upon receipt of the possessor's copy of such certificate, the garage having custody of the vehicle shall release the vehicle to its possessor. Upon a finding of no probable cause, towing and storage fees shall be paid by the Village of Sloatsburg. If the possessor fails to present such certificate to the garage having custody of the vehicle within 24 hours of its receipt, excluding such days when the garage is not open for business, the possessor shall assume liability for all subsequent storage charges. Such certificate shall advise the possessor of such requirement.
N. 
Record of impounded vehicles. The Police Department shall keep, and make available for public inspection, a record of all vehicles impounded by it under the provisions of this chapter. The record shall include at least the following information:
