AMENDMENT

Neighborhoods, Community Services, Public Health and Safety Committee · 2026-06-15 · agenda_item

The City of Jacksonville's Neighborhoods, Community Services, Public Health and Safety Committee is reviewing an amendment to the Jacksonville Traffic Code concerning towing and storage of vehicles and vessels. This amendment proposes changes to insurance requirements for participating wreckers, including specific liability coverage amounts. It also updates definitions and references to align with State Statutes, adds "vessels" as a distinct category, and modifies non-business hours. The proposal allows for new service charges and fees for specialized vehicles, electric vehicles, and other situations, and clarifies current JSO practices. This item is currently pending review. The work would involve updating policies and potentially requiring new insurance policies and updated operational procedures for towing companies. Local businesses that provide insurance, legal services, and administrative support could be impacted. Reaching out to the city or towing companies early could provide an advantage before final decisions are made.
