Clarification: When I wrote, advocating city-imposed usury limits on private-lot towing charges:
> I know the city makes mucho dinero from this, but - having not been towed > for awhile, I don't know how much this limit would cut into their haul. > Still, a reasonable limit is the right thing to do. ...I didn't mean that the city makes money when private lot owners tow. It doesn't. My point was, if the city caps private fees, it may have to cut its own, too. That would be a disincentive (depending upon the usury limit and the city's current fee), but still the right thing to do. David Brauer Kingfield REMINDERS: 1. Think a member has violated the rules?
