Update.
So I did confirm they chalked my other tire after I had told them I was going out of town and advised them verbally and in writing that I was leaving and they are not to tow my car (per my conversation with the assistant manager). ..ha ha ha..
I stopped by the management office to request a copy of the addendum that states stored vehicle. Office staff girl asked me if I was on "on notice." To which I replied, "Huh?" She said she was trying to figure out where my file was. I asked her what she meant by that twice. She said nothing and made me my copies. I wished her happy holidays despite the threat. Ever since the incident, I've been paying rent online as I don't want to give them any opportunities to retaliate. And in case of any noise complaint fabrication, I'm sure my neighbors will back me up there.
The lease addendum simply stated that stored vehicles are not allowed. Nothing more.
The signs around the apartment complex simply state No parking "in open spaces over 72 hours" and thats it.
I've been spending such a great amount of time researching their potential arguments and I keep coming up with only more FAIL for them. I'd post it up, but as I said this thread comes up in searches, I'm going to drop it all on the upcoming court date.
So I went to the courthouse and filed for a small claims case. Per the legal advisor there, I'm going for 4x the tow bill. He was basing that off of vehicle code 22658. Sounded like a good number. Court date is set for 2 months from now.
I'll update after the court date or some long awaited contact from the (multiple) parties I am going after.
I am drooling in anticipation.
