number assigned, the name of the owner of the permit and the expiration
date of said permit. The permit must be conspicuously displayed on
the driver's side of the dashboard. In addition to any parking violation
notice issued as provided in this chapter, vehicles found in violation
of this section may be towed from the lot and stored, the expenses
of both to be paid by the registered owner of the vehicle.
