This bill amends various sections of the Minnesota Statutes related to motor vehicle towing authority. It introduces a new definition of "properly posted" in section 168B.011, which specifies the requirements for signage indicating that unauthorized vehicles may be towed. The bill also modifies section 168B.035, subdivision 5, to clarify that property owners can arrange for the towing of unauthorized vehicles, aligning it with the provisions in section 168B.04.

Additionally, section 168B.04 is amended to include new limitations on the impounding of vehicles from private property. A new subdivision outlines that a vehicle tower can only impound a vehicle if the property owner or their designee identifies the vehicle's make, model, and license plate number, and specifically authorizes the impoundment. This aims to ensure that towing practices are conducted with proper authorization and transparency.
