Any motor vehicle, motorcycle or trailer parked upon any public street or publicly controlled
parking lot in violation of any parking restrictions currently in force in the City of Rexburg
may be removed at any time at the direction of the City Police Department and may be
towed to another public street or publicly controlled parking lot, provided such towing and
parking of the vehicle on such other public facility does not interfere with the efficient and
authorized removal of snow from such public facility. The vehicle may also be removed and
stored in such other storage facility as may be appropriate, without prior notice to the owner
or operator of the vehicle. Nothing herein shall preclude the issuance of a subsequent
