SAFEclear changes to be announced Friday?
KHOU-11 reports that Mayor White is considering changes that could effectively gut his (and Bob Stein's) ill-conceived SAFEclear program:
Mayor Bill White said Houston's controversial Safe Clear towing program is about to under go more changes.
The mayor is trying to bring his freeway towing plan into compliance with a recent court ruling.
Mayor White said the changes are still under review, but he indicates more than one towing company may be allowed to operate on each freeway.
He also indicated AAA may also be allowed to tow its members off freeways.
The mayor hopes to have the reforms ready for presentation to city council by Friday.
How courteous of the mayor to decide to comply with the court ruling. However, the devil is in the details, and this mayor tends to be stubborn. It will hardly be surprising if his changes do not satisfy the litigants, and they have to go back to court. Perhaps we'll know by Friday, the day on which most politicians try to bury unfavorable news.
