§ 35-53. Scope.

(a)

This division shall be effective throughout the unincorporated area of Orange County, and within any municipality as provided by Section 704 of the Orange County Charter, as it may be amended from time to time, unless a municipality chooses to enact an ordinance covering the same subject matter, activity, or conduct as the county ordinance. If a municipality has adopted its own ordinance covering the same subject matter, activity, or conduct as the county ordinance, then the county's ordinance shall not apply within such municipality. Orange County shall not be responsible for enforcing this division within municipalities, but reserves the jurisdiction and right to enforce this division within a municipality as it may deem necessary.

(b)

No towing or immobilization service shall immobilize, tow, or otherwise transport a vehicle for compensation when the point of origin of the tow or transportation is within Orange County unless such towing or immobilization service complies with the requirements of F.S. chs. 713 and 715, and the applicable provisions of this article.
