It shall be unlawful for any person to park an unlicensed vehicle,
or a vehicle with an expired license [, or to abandon a vehicle for a
period longer than seven days,] on any public road, highway, street,
avenue or alley in the county. The chief of police is hereby authorized
to take possession of and remove any such vehicle so parked [or
abandoned] in violation of this section, by means of county equip-
ment or by contract entered into pursuant to the provisions of title 26
of this Code, if applicable, and he may cause such vehicle to be stored
either upon county property or upon private property by suitable
contract entered into pursuant to the provisions of title 26 of this
Code, if applicable. The cost of removing or towing any such vehicle
and of storing the same must be paid by the owner before such
vehicle may be repossessed by him, and such charge shall be in
addition to any fine or other penalty imposed for the violation of
this section. If the owner fails to repossess such vehicle within
thirty days after it is impounded, such vehicle may be sold by the
chief of police or his agent pursuant to the provisions of title 26 of
this Code, if applicable, and the proceeds of such sale, after payment
of the costs thereof, applied first, to reimbursing the county for the
cost of removing or towing the vehicle and of storing the same;
second, to the payment of all liens on the same, and the balance of
such proceeds shall be paid to the owner if claimed by him within
six months from the date of sale. If the owner fails to claim such
balance within such period of time, it shall be forfeited and paid into
the county treasury.
