HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - June 7, 1995 (56)CITY OF LODE COUNCIL COMMUNICATION AGENDA TITLE: Consider Awarding Abandoned Vehicle Towing Franchise MEETING DATE: June 7, 1995 PREPARED BY: Community Development Director RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council consider awarding the Abandoned Vehicle Towing Franchise to Stubbs Pro Tow. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: For the last several years the towing of vehicles pursuant to Lodi Municipal Code Section 10.56.020 (i.e. removal from private property) has been subject to an exclusive franchise agreement with Stubbs Pro Tow. This exclusive franchise was needed for several reasons. First, when salvage prices were low it would be difficult to find a towing company willing to pick up and dispose of junk autos at no cost to the City. Second, when the various vendors were busy there would be long delays before the vehicles were removed. Third, when the vehicles to be picked up were of little or no value, it would be difficult to find a company willing to tow the vehicle away and dispose of it. Stubbs has performed this service no matter what the situation and always in a timely manner. Currently, there are several companies interested in providing this service to the City. The Police Chief and Community Development Director believe that the award should go to Stubbs Pro Tow because (1) the company has an outstanding track record with the City; (2) Stubbs has a large variety of towing equipment which is essential in abandoned automobile removal; and (3) the Company is also a Licensed Automobile Dismantler which is an advantage to the City.

Respectfully Submitted; 0*1oC IC'X, Mike Covey/Owne Pacific Towing City of Lodi 221 W. Pine Street Lodi, CA 95240 To whom it may concern: PONTIAC ra"- &C GMC, INC April 13, 1995 I RECTI E D APR 1 r� COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT A PAUUMT We would like to propose to the City of Lodi that Plummer Towing will remove all abandoned cars, wrecked or otherwise, at no cost to the city. Plummer Towing would be willing to do this on an exclusive contract with the City and Plummer Towing, or on a rotation basis with other companies, under the city's direction. cmc We will pick these vehicles up in an expediant manner, as outlined in the contract, or by whatever terms the City of Lodi proposes. These vehicles will be held in our yard the legal lenght of time, as dictated by the California Vehicle Code (CVC), and then they will be disposed of to a licensed auto dis- mantler. Plummer Towing is bidding this contract, noting that we protest in the contract that the towing company be a "duly licensed auto dismantler to tow under contract." Under the CVC, we understand that all abandoned vehicles have to go to a licensed auto dismantler or scrap iron dealer to be disposed of, after the legal waiting period. We also protest to the wording of "all wrecked vehicles within the city limits on public and private property." We welcome the opportunity to obtain this contract with the City of Lodi.

You have also provided Dusty and I the use of your storage yard to continue our training on an on-going basis.

I was reviewing our training records and found were your company has repeatedly assisted Mokelumne Rural Fire District with vehicles at no charge for the purpose of extrication training. As you know a large part of our responses are to motor vehicle accidents, a great deal of training and skills must go into the removal of an Injured victim from a car when is bent, broken and entangled around them. With your assistance you have added us in the ability to prevent any future injuries and possible life loss. Your support has not only helped Mokelumne Rural Fire District but the community we live and serve in. Thank you very much and thank all of your people for a job well done. Sincerely, Jerry L.
