It is hereby found and determined by the council of the City of Cincinnati that persons
who use vehicles or permit another to use a vehicle to facilitate the commission or
attempted commission of crimes involving evading a police officer, sexual activity
for hire or the possession, delivery, transportation, purchase, or sale of illegal
drugs pose a significant threat to the safety of citizens and the quality of life
in Cincinnati's neighborhoods and are a detriment to the public's health, welfare
and safety.
The council also finds and determines that the impoundment of vehicles used in the
commission or attempted commission of crimes involving evading a police officer, sexual
activity for hire or the possession, delivery, transportation, purchase, or sale of
illegal drugs will temporarily remove such vehicles from the streets of the city and
reduce the potential for further illicit use. Removal of the resources and instrumentalities
of persons who commit or attempt to commit such crimes will have a deterrent effect
on this type of criminal behavior, thus contributing to council's efforts to improve
citizens' safety and the quality of life in Cincinnati's neighborhoods.
