(a) Whenever a police officer has reason to believe that a vehicle is subject to seizure and impoundment pursuant to this section, the police officer may provide for the towing of the vehicle to a facility approved by the chief of police. This section shall not apply if the vehicle used in the violation was stolen at that time and the theft was reported to the appropriate police authorities within 24 hours after the theft was discovered or reasonably should have been discovered.
(b) The police officer shall notify any person identifying himself as the owner of the vehicle or any person who is found to be in control of the vehicle at the time of the alleged violation, if there is such a person, of the fact of the seizure and of the vehicle owner's right to request an administrative hearing to be conducted under this section.

(e) If the owner of record requests a hearing but fails to appear at the hearing or fails to request a hearing in a timely manner, the owner of record shall be deemed to have waived his or her right to a hearing and the administrative hearing officer shall enter a default order in favor of the village in the amount of the administrative penalty.
(f) If the owner pays the administrative penalty and the vehicle is returned to the owner, no default order need be entered if the owner is informed of his or her right to a hearing and signs a written waiver, in which case an order of liability shall be deemed to have been made when the village receives the written waiver.
(Ord. No. 2007-21, § I, 3-19-2007)

(3) The vehicle is deemed abandoned, in which case the vehicle shall be disposed of in the manner provided by law for the disposition of abandoned vehicles.
(Ord. No. 2007-21, § I, 3-19-2007)
Sec. 78-45. Posting of bond.
(a) If a bond is posted with the police department, the impounded vehicle shall be released to the owner of record. The owner of the vehicle shall still be liable to the towing agent for any applicable towing and storage fees.
