Ray County commissioners met with local towing businesses on May 7, 2026, to review a draft towing resolution aimed at creating a clearer towing-rotation and dispatch process.
The discussion centered on towing procedures, rotation policies, response times and perceived fairness in how calls are assigned. Commissioners said they would collect additional input from the county 911 center, the sheriff’s department and other county offices to shape a transparent, consistent policy before returning the draft for further review. The minutes do not record a vote; commissioners characterized the session as a fact-finding and stakeholder-input step.
Commissioners indicated further discussion and review will be needed before a final resolution is scheduled for a vote.
Next steps: staff are to gather agency input and return a revised draft for future commission consideration.
