The Service Safety Director or his agent is hereby authorized and directed, in the interest of public welfare, to create a policy for establishing a towing and impoundment lot plan for motor vehicles impounded under Chapter 303 of the Lancaster Codified Ordinances. Such policy shall be designed in such a manner so that inconvenience to the owners of towed and/or impounded motor vehicles is as minimal as possible. The Service Safety Director is further authorized to operate and maintain an impound lot for the purpose of the impoundment and the storage of motor vehicles lawfully impounded by reason of any section of these Codified Ordinances or the Ohio Revised Code, and to enter into all contracts reasonably necessary to operate and maintain such impound lot. However, the Service Safety Director shall also have authority to delegate to another agency, entity, company or corporation to act as the City’s impound lot or to provide dispatch services or administer a towing and impoundment lot plan.
