The registered owner or lessee of any vehicle seized pursuant to this chapter may retrieve the vehicle seized prior to the evidentiary hearing by admitting liability to the city for the administrative penalty, and, in addition to the payment of applicable towing and storage fees, remits the full amount of the administrative penalty established in this chapter. The admission of liability shall be deemed a waiver of the administrative hearing, and upon the entry of an admission of liability, any administrative hearing scheduled shall be waived and cancelled.
