Moore described Innovative Parking, as the "largest, if not the only, parking management company that uses immobilization devices" in Chicago to ensure "paying customers have access to their business." Towing companies "charge a base rate of $216, plus a storage fee of $45 a day. And if you're driving a larger vehicle, such as an SUV, the towing fine can be anywhere from $520 to $700, depending on the size of the vehicles. Towing companies even charge motorcycles $500 and up to remove the boot. And storage fees for the larger vehicles and motorcycles are an additional $140 a day," Moore said.
"If a potential customer doesn't see a space available to them to frequent the store, they move on. This parking immobilization device gives them an ability to prevent that from happening."Pointing to the "volatile times that we're in," Napolitano predicted the citywide ordinance would trigger fights galore when motorists find their vehicles booted.
