Renewing Impound and Vehicle Storage Services

The Cleveland Department of Public Safety is looking to extend its current agreement for vehicle impoundment and storage services. Emergency Ordinance 1165-2026 would allow the Director of Public Safety to exercise an option to renew an existing contract with TMT Consolidated LLC, doing business as Cleveland Vehicle Detention Center.

What's in the file

The proposed emergency ordinance authorizes the renewal of Contract No. CT 6002 PS 2024-0221. This contract provides the Department of Public Safety with "One Stop" impound services and the storage of motor vehicles, including non-commercial impounded vehicles.

Who may be affected

The record specifically names the Department of Public Safety and the contractor, TMT Consolidated LLC.

Status and timeline

The ordinance was introduced on September 24, 2026, and is currently at the first reading stage before City Council. This request follows a recent trend in public safety legislation; there have been 66 public-safety-related items processed in the last 90 days. This renewal also relates to previous legislative activity regarding vehicle impoundment and towing operations, such as Ord. No. 698-2026, which amended several sections of the city's codified ordinances.

Residents can verify the details of this proposal by reviewing the official record for File No. 1165-2026 through the Cleveland City Council Legistar website.
