I assume the City or local officials are ordering you to move the vehicle; it probably is in violation of local laws. Ask the entity which law is being broken and point out the other vehicles are not being ordered moved. But I think they have the legal right to make you move it.
You can't park a nonoperative car on a public street and not expect it to get towed. The argument that others are doing it is not a defense. You need to store it somewhere legally, such as your garage or a separate lot.
