A. Whenever a police officer has reason to believe that a motor vehicle is subject to seizure and impoundment pursuant to this chapter, the police officer shall provide for the towing of the motor vehicle to an approved facility by the village. This may include removing the motor vehicle from the scene of the arrest by a police officer and stored on village property. In this circumstance, the owner of record shall not be charged a "towing or storage" fee. This chapter shall not apply if the motor vehicle used in the violation was stolen at the time and the theft was reported to the appropriate police authorities within twenty four (24) hours after the theft was discovered or reasonably should have been discovered.
B. The police officer shall notify any person identifying him or herself as the owner of the motor vehicle or any person who is found to be in control of the motor vehicle at the time of the alleged violation, if there is such a person, of the fact of the seizure and impoundment of the motor vehicle and of the owner of record's right to request an administrative hearing to be conducted under this chapter.
