Miami Beach Approves Program to Limit Resident Vehicle Tows

Miami Beach city commissioners have greenlit a new initiative designed to decrease the number of resident vehicles being towed for parking infractions. The program, officially named the “End Resident Tows Program,” is scheduled to commence on July 1st.

Under the new policy, residents will be permitted to accumulate up to three parking citations and receive text message warnings before their vehicle is subject to towing. A fourth violation will result in the vehicle being towed.

Officials project that this program will prevent more than 60% of resident vehicle tows. However, the policy includes exceptions for serious violations such as parking in handicap-designated spots or obstructing fire hydrants, which will still lead to immediate towing.
