If, within 30 days of the mailing or publication of notice, whichever is applicable, or thereafter, the property remains in the possession of the city, the owner makes written request to the Police Chief and sufficiently identifies the abandoned property, the owner may recover the abandoned property, but only after payment to the City Clerk of a storage fee in the amount of $1 for each day elapsed from the date of impoundment to, but not including, the date of recovery; except that the daily storage charge for impounded motor vehicles shall be as established by the Council, from time to time, by resolution.
