City Council Working WITH The Towing Company

I saw an interesting story about a cooperative relationship between the city government and the towing companies in Cleveland. Rather than just let things go to chance or caving in when the public complains, the city council is working WITH the #towing company to decide fair rates.

Granted, the rates are not as low as the city wants or as high as a company wants BUT it keeps good contractors from walking away due to costs and protects the public. The amount of conflict and complaints this will prevent is immeasurable and would be a great model for other cities.

Arbitrator rules Springfield owed $62,405 by former towing company

Published: Monday, July2011, 6:21 
SPRINGFIELD – An arbitrator has ruled that the Springfield Towing Alliance, terminated by the city in 2008 and mired in a legal battle since that time, must pay the city $62,405 in outstanding fees.

City Solicitor Edward M. Pikula said the ruling from Arbitrator Mel L. Greenberg is binding on both sides, as well as a bank also owed money in the arbitration case.

The towing alliance under the corporate name CF Inc., consisting of multiple towing contractors, was initially hired by the city in 2006 for police-ordered towing and storage duties. In November of 2008, the city terminated the alliance after accusing the company of 17 significant contract violations including tardy and incomplete reports and failure to pay the city approximately $142,000 in fees.

This is useful when pulling cars onto flatbed trucks. The Model 6200 also has a 5-degree offset pedal for extra foot-to-tire clearance. This unit is ONLY available in left and right hand options. Towing Companies Line up cars for tow hook ups. Flatbed trucks can be loaded and unloaded with ease. Great for saving space in storage lots. Perfect for front wheel or All Wheel drives. Great Tool for Repossesion Agents as well!
