The City of Huntsville, Texas recently passed Ordinance 26-136, which according to industry sources requires vehicle storage facilities to own the property they operate on — a requirement that multiple towing companies say has cost them their rotation positions. At least one affected operator has described the requirement as potentially exceeding the city's regulatory authority under Texas law.
Operator takeaway
Review your lease agreements now — if other Texas cities follow Huntsville's model, operators who lease their yard could lose rotation access.
