You’re not winning this case.

OP admitted they went to an adjacent property, which is (while brief) a parking violation. Wells Fargo is a different lot with a different owner. The fence is there to make it clear (which is why they keep repairing it).

Rules on parking lots are they are for the property and businesses only unless explicitly posted.

That tow is the cost of trying to not park and move your car again.

Tow trucks also love to take photos or video now too, so odds are they’ll have that, and you’ll get a bill for the employee who showed up at small claims time. You agreed when getting the car out to pay all expenses related to legal actions etc.

Violators will be towed.

Which is all the same property. Hence redevelopment is of those properties only.

Wells Fargo is on a weird shaped lot that goes back to when that was a rail yard. It was some kind of scrap leftover.

and they have the big official signs mentioned in the nj consumer affairs links below at the entrance by Shop Rite and on the BJ's building at that entrance. The towing company, rates, etc. Looks like it is Kings Towing.
