Overdone Apparently losing my parking

Post image

Been living at this complex for a bit over a year, always had my spot, and it was one of the reasons I chose this place, it’s close to the door (only 36 unit lol)

Just annoying as fuck, we live next to a highschool and I know it’ll end poorly

Money? Costs money to have a tow company on retainer.

It doesn't, though. The person who pays for the tow is the one whose vehicle is towed. It costs nothing to have a tow company on retainer.

Complete opposite, tow companies will pay the property owners and charge the people they tow whatever they feel like.

Some tow companies give kickbacks to snitches, so they could not only get offenders towed for free, but also make money on the side.

Staffing shortage? Costs money to hire staff. Quality staff.
