Counties: other; county towing authority; provide for. Amends 1851 PA 156 (MCL 46.1 - 46.32) by adding sec. 11f.

HB 6232 allows Michigan county boards of commissioners to create a dedicated towing and recovery authority board upon request from the local sheriff or emergency 9-1-1 district director. This new board would be composed of seven members, including representatives from law enforcement, the towing industry, local government, and county residents, who serve staggered terms. The authority is empowered to establish rules for towing providers, create service districts, set equipment and operator standards, and manage a complaint process for rule violations. Members of the board are not paid but may be reimbursed for expenses, and the board must operate under state open meetings and freedom of information laws while reporting annually to the county commissioners.
