The polls can be found on the community forum linked above. I've provided an exact copy of the forum topic to read below. If you don't plan on using the poll feature, feel free to leave a reply with your opinion.

________________________________

Pre-discussion to overcome the first major hurdle before I even begin drafting up a proposal.

To prevent any “popularity” biases please refrain from looking at taginfo until after you vote in the poll. The usage counts are still so low that it’s better to pick what’s right for the long term rather than what has been arbitrarily picked. Nothing is set in stone.

Researching the top towing tags revealed that these three different top-level keys have been mapped to refer to exactly the same thing and there is no reason to differentiate.

Which top-level key?

  *
amenity=towing
  *
office=towing
  *
shop=towing

My effort of consolidating a ridiculous number of unique values has also landed me with these two values.

Which value?

  *
 *=towing
  *
 *=towing_service

I will be drafting the proposal and starting the RFC at a later date.
