The #1 bandit sign on our site, owned by Lenny Trexler, is turning out to be interesting for a new reason.

A recent search on PACER has revealed that a Mr. Leonard Trexler was convicted by a FEDERAL court in 2003 for running an illegal chop shop operation.

Is Lenny's current operation, the $250 vehicle recovery business, valid?   One must be licensed to be a tow operator in Philadelphia.   We have no way of finding out who is a valid tow operator, those are searches only the Parking Authority or L&I can do.  YES, you really do need a Philadelphia Tow License to tow cars in Philadelphia.

What we do know is that we are sick of his bandit signs.


It's sad that City Council Bill 120017 is designed to aid and abet a Federal ex-con.   Really sad.    Maybe City Council should just drop this bill when it gets the chance at the next session in Room 400? 

If you are tired of bandit signs in your neighborhood, please support us and sign the Change.org petition to ask City Hall to vote NO or withdraw Bill No. 120017 which seeks to legalize bandit signs in Philadelphia.
