As a general policy, the town will not remove a vehicle from private property if the owner, occupant, or lessee of such property could have the vehicle removed under applicable state law procedures. In no case will a vehicle be removed by the town without written request from the owner, occupant or lessee, except in those cases where a vehicle is a nuisance or is a junked motor vehicle which has been order removed by the appropriate Town Official. The town may require any person requesting the removal of an abandoned, nuisance or junked motor vehicle from private property to indemnify the town against any loss, expense or liability incurred because of the removal, storage, or sale thereof.
