§ 60A-4. Towing service registration.

A. 

No towing service shall be placed upon the towing list for the towing or storing of motor vehicles within the Borough unless the towing service shall first register with the Borough. In order to be placed upon the towing list for light-duty towing, a towing service must be located within 15 miles of the geographic center of the Borough of Lavallete or within the Borough of Lavallette. Registration applications shall be made available by the Borough Police Department. A towing service that has met all the specifications and requirements of this chapter and has registered with the Borough shall be placed on the towing list by the Chief of Police or Public Safety Director; however, the maximum number of towing services on the Borough's towing list shall be five such services. Services shall be placed on the Borough's towing list on a first-come first-served basis. Vacancies shall be filled in the same manner. Each towing service must submit its schedule of basic towing and storage rates with its registration application. The rates and fees for towing and storage of motor vehicles shall not exceed the rates set by this chapter.

B. 

The towing service owner or its authorized representative shall sign the registration application form indicating that the full requirements of this chapter have been met by the towing service applicant.

C. 

If any information provided by a towing service in its registration application changes, the towing service is responsible for notifying the Police Department of the change in the registration information within 30 days of such change. Failure to comply with this provision will be deemed a violation of this chapter.
