Any vehicle parked in violation of the traffic ordinances of the city at a place where parking is prohibited or parking time is limited may be removed and impounded by the police department, such removal to be accomplished by an authorized wrecker service. An impounding fee of twenty dollars ($20.00), plus the wrecker service charge, shall be assessed against and collected from the owner or driver of the vehicle before the release of such vehicle. The payment of the impounding fee shall not excuse such owner or driver of the vehicle from the charge of violating the regulation prohibiting or limiting parking.
