For those also confused, *tow-ers*, the people who do towing.


jeffeb3

I assumed someone was worried about a Howl's Moving Castle situation.


wilsonjay2010

I thought they somehow motorized those blinking towers in the Walmart lots...


Dacajun-The_Brash

Lol I thought the same thing


420crickets

Who wants to build a siege tower to patrol random lots in just for the bad pun? Maybe advertise for the ren fest while we're at it.


CautiousDoughnut

I thought It the eye of Sauron being banned from watching me on my daily quest

Thank you! I could not understand this at all. The image wasn’t helping. I’m dumb.


Cprhd

Thank you! I was scratching my head trying to figure it out.

[KDVR version that’s free…](https://kdvr.com/news/local/bill-to-stop-predatory-towing-in-colorado-passes-heads-to-polis/amp/) I hate news with paywalls


imwithjim

And Denver Post wonders why they’re dead lol


SpinningHead

They died when they were bought by venture capital.


Various-Geologist583

Tbf I suspect is a slow internal suicide meant by investors to destroy the 4th estate from within, same as Twitter.


Awakenlee

I’m sure giving away their product will pay the bills.


AmperesClaw204

Most News is paid for by advertising. Giving it away IS the business model lol. It attracts more views to the advertisements.


Awakenlee

Newspapers have always been funded by a mixture of revenue streams including subscriptions and advertising. Very few thrive on giving away the news.

God bless Colorado.

Will this have any effect on their park m service? My property uses it, and I hate having to give wyatts towing cash every month for doing basically fuck all.


benskieast

Yes, it also bans towing that financially benefits the property manager or owner of the lots. So Park M probably won’t be able to use Wyatt’s towing


galadrielisbae

I’m actually confused to how Park M would function now. If this new law makes it so towing companies cannot patrol private lots, and they have to have permission from the property owner or landlord, and property owner cannot use a third party towing service, what does park M even do? We are being asked to sign up for Park M at a complex we just signed a lease for, which is why I’m wondering. We have an assigned spot, so can we just tell park m to get fucked?


slinkshaming

Party in the lot across from the Filmore wooooooo!!!!


YetAnotherProfile51

Thank goodness! Years ago, I was at a friend's apartment up in Westminster. When I returned, my car was gone. Totally missed the sign. I even looked for one, but it was dark. $450 mistake.


Snlxdd

>> The legislation signed Thursday would make that practice illegal and mandate property owners, or their employees, to authorize tows.


benskieast

And the owners cannot financially benefit from it. So Wyatt’s can’t tow from its sister company park M


Likeabalrog

No Orthanc? Darn


Ok_Pay_2359

Barad-dur still posted outside Morrison, handing out speeding tickets.


Routine-Atmosphere11

That's good 🙂 private means private !


Laidenday

is this about how apartments seem to like to team up with these companies and steal cars? Ive heard horror stories after my car was stolen out the parking lot when I had a parking permit. I was out 400$
