Body
I. SUMMARY
The City Council adopted a resolution in 2012 designating certain local towing providers as the exclusive providers to be used by the City. Additionally, the City Council has adopted a resolution urging the LA County Sheriff's Department to also utilize certain towing providers as exclusive providers to the City of Carson's Sheriff's Station. Since that time Los Angeles County decided that they should independently choose appropriate towing companies as needed.
Based upon the foregoing the City Council is asked to consider the attached resolution, which would repeal City Council Resolution No. 12-085 and any other City Council resolutions that designate certain local towing companies serving as exclusive tow providers for the City and all resolutions that urge the LA County Sheriff's Department to utilize certain local tow providers as the exclusive providers to the City of Carson's Sheriff's Station. Additionally, staff is seeking for direction from the City Council to explore all options available to the City for towing services in the City.
