well, I can sure relate, as can many others my car was impounded back in May. (I forget which street--it's thedowntownish, north/west lot near Chicago ave.) When I retrieved it outof the lot, the passenger window was smashed in and the center consolehad been pulled out--an attempt to steal my stereo.
I estimated thedamage at $300, following the "procedure" that they give you at the lot. You know, that official form that they have that you are supposedto fill out when those assholes steal from you. (Sad that theyactually have a form for this.) Of course, this never goes anywhere, and they will refuse to pay for it. I sent in all of the info requested and 3 months later, received a brief letter stating that based on the evidence I provided, they could not award me any damages. Of course...there is no evidence on their end. There were about 4 other people in the line when I was there to retrieve my car complaining about damage too and theft of their property.
good luck
