During the time that any Personal Property is held by the City, it may be delivered or paid to its owner as follows:
(a) The Personal Property shall be delivered upon proof of ownership satisfactory to the Chief of Police after ten (10) days’ notice by mail to any other person(s) who have asserted a claim of ownership at any address given by such person(s).
(b) If the Personal Property consists of money, it shall be paid to the owner upon written order from the Chief of Police to the Director of Finance. The Chief of Police shall make such order upon the same proof of ownership and with the same notice as prescribed in the case of Personal Property.
(c) If ownership cannot be determined to the satisfaction of the Chief of Police, he or she may refuse to deliver the Personal Property or refuse to order the payment of such money to anyone until ordered to do so by a court of competent jurisdiction. (Ord. 6290 § 1 (part); November 5, 2013.)
