I agree with the 30 day suspension. Whiteys is known for the mistreatment of people. Stuff like this has been going on for years.

How about the City just getting rid of Whiteys, and contract with a more reasonable tow operator.

Because the requirements of who can tow for the city are in writing and it's a government contract it's much harder to remove a selected company, who meets those requirements, from that list. It's one of the pitfalls of governments having to be fair and help prevent corruption (see Eddie Perez).

Even so, the city should start looking at some kind of recourse because Whitey's has been non-stop problems since the owner turned over the office to his daughter.

Whitey's does stuff like this all the time! I too agree with a 30 day suspension at the very least. The people of this city need to be respected by the business who operate here.

Not sticking up for Whitey's, but who was the douchebag who called in for the tow? Everyone knows to park at any public school when a parking ban is in effect. This is nothing new. I've been parking at Naylor school for years, so whoever called Whitey's should bear some responsibility.

ahhh, winter in hartford. the simplest of policies know no limits of convolution when it comes to hartford's powers that be.....this is nothing new. when i was unfortunate enough to live there and do the "right thing" (park at a school during a parking ban) i got a ticket from an officer who claimed he had worked in HFD for 15 years and never heard of such a thing as parking at schools during snow emergencies....just one of dozens of examples of incompetence. if this person spends, say, 40 hours dealing with the city's bureaucracy to rectify the situation they will STILL NEVER get their towing fee reimbursed....something seriously wrong in hartford that truly seems like it will never be fixed.

Not sticking up for Whiteys. But blaming Whiteys isn't the answer, who should pay for the tow? Who should pay for the driver? I think the person who called in the tow should pay the tow. Enough said.
