Downtown Alderman Brendan Reilly’s proposed crackdown on rogue valet companies cleared the City Council License and Consumer Protection Committee Wednesday.
Reilly (42nd) explained that his measure “does not place new requirements upon the valet industry” but “simply strengthens some of the penalties for violating the most egregious rules.”
These include a provision that valet companies caught operating without a license will be banned from operating for a year, and fined between $2,000 and $5,000.
