If a cash bond as required by this traffic code is posted with the Village Comptroller, the impounded motor vehicle shall be released to the owner of record upon the payment of any applicable towing and storage fees to the towing agent. If an administrative penalty is imposed for any violation under § 71.16, the cash bond will be forfeited to the village; however, in the event a violation under § 71.16 is not proven by a preponderance of the evidence, the cash bond will be returned to the person posting the bond. All bond money to be forfeited to the village pursuant to this section shall be held by the Village Comptroller until 30 days after an administrative penalty is imposed by the hearing officer under this traffic code, or, if there is a judicial review, until a final judgment is rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction.
