Smartphone app for towing documentation

The idea

Develop a smartphone app for towing. Tow operators will use the app to photograph the four-corners of the vehicle and the plate, and submit electronically to the city. This will replace the legacy process of two operators calling BPD by phone.

Who it helps and why

This will save the city money. The app will ensure that tow companies cannot call in four plates at once, when they are only towing the first car and saving the other three for later, after the street sweeper has already left the area. the app will notify constituents more quickly of their towed vehicles.
