RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA AMENDING THE CITY-INITIATED TOW

companies to provide tow and impound services for City-initiated tows (each, an “Agreement,”
collectively, the “Agreements”); and

subject to an annual review and revision and the Police Department is requesting Council approval
to update this rate schedule for calendar year 2025, to apply to each of the Agreements; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has considered a proposed schedule of all charges and fees
for each Agreement that the tow companies will be authorized to collect from consumers for tow
