RFP #:24-08-01 Proposer: Midtown Towing of Miami, Inc. 4 — PROTECTION OF IMPOUNDED VEHICLES AND PROPERTY: Midtown Towing has a 24-hour video surveillance system. Our digital video recorder has multiple angles and stores 30 days' worth of footage which can be extracted and stored externally, if necessary. The facility is secured and staff to ensure that unauthorized persons cannot gain access to the property without consent. The inside storage areas will, of course, be available to authorized City of Sunny Isles Beach personnel for technical processing. Midtown Towing realizes that it is our sole responsibility to safeguard all storage units from theft and vandalism. We will guarantee that the vehicles and their contents remain in the same condition that they were in at the time the Vehicle Storage Receipt was written at the time of impoundment. We recognize that it will be our obligation to replace or reimburse the owner or authorized representative for any loss which is verified by the designated investigative agency representing the City. Midtown Towing will completely weather-proof any vehicle for which this service is ordered by the impounding officer and is notated on the Vehicle Storage Receipt. There will be no cost for this service. 5 — USE OF STORAGE FACILITIES: Midtown Towing will not allow storage facilities to be used unless prior written approval is issued by the City of Sunny Isles Beach Police Department. 6. STORAGE OF INVESTIGATIVE TOWS WITH POLICE HOLD: Midtown Towing understands that vehicles in pounded with an evidence hold, investigative hold order, confiscation hold, or other "Police Hold" pursuant to Police Department instructions, shall be stored only in the primary storage facility and may be stored for a period of up to seven (7) working days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and City observed holidays, at no charge for the first seven (7) days or until the "Police Hold" is released, whichever occurs first. Midtown Towing understands that if the Police Department has the vehicle removed from our primary storage facility, and the vehicle is subsequently released to the owner, the owner will be responsible for the initial tow and storage for the number of days the vehicle remained at Midtown's storage facility. The fees will not include the tow to or from the city storage facility. However, if the Police Department elects to have the vehicle remain at Midtown's facility, the Police Department shall be responsible for any storage charges incurred after the initial seven (7) days (excluding holidays and weekends). The towing and storage rates charged to the owner or lienholder shall not exceed the rates that would have been charged to the Police Department. Midtown Towing acknowledges that when the Police Department orders a vehicle involved in a criminal investigation to be towed to the police station, or a location other than Midtown's storage facility, the towed vehicle may be released from such location to the owner/lienholder upon arrival by a police supervisor. Under this procedure, the Police Department agrees to pay for such tows so ordered. Midtown Towing of Miami, Inc. 645
