8-21-5: HEARING:
   A.   After a vehicle has been immobilized pursuant to this chapter, the registered owner and any other persons who reasonably appear to have an interest in the vehicle are entitled to a speedy hearing in municipal court to determine if the vehicle was immobilized in accordance with sections 8-21-1 and 8-21-2 of this chapter. Such hearing must be requested within five (5) days of the immobilization or towing. The hearing must be held as soon as all parties can be present, but no more than ten (10) business days after the request is made.
   B.   If the court finds that the immobilization was invalid or unjustified, the court shall order the vehicle released immediately, and the owner or any other persons who have an interest in the vehicle will not be held liable for the immobilization fee.
   C.   If the court finds that the immobilization was valid and justified, the court shall order that the immobilization device remain on the vehicle until payment is received for the immobilization fee and all unpaid parking tickets, or the court will order forfeiture of the bond posted, plus fees for towing and storage, if appropriate. However, when a vehicle with an immobilization device attached remains immobilized for a period of forty eight (48) hours and a release has not been obtained, the vehicle will be towed and impounded.
   D.   The decision of the court is the final decision by the city. (Ord. 3121, 1-11-2010, eff. 3-1-2010)
