[Amended 5-2-2005 ATM, Art. 11, approved 8-4-2005]
No person in control of real property in Town, other than a commercial
junkyard or a commercial garage who is duly licensed with a Class 1, 2 or
3 license by the Board of Selectmen under MGL c.140, § 58, shall
keep, or allow to be kept, any unregistered, unused, disassembled, or inoperable
motor vehicles on his or her property unless such vehicle, covered or not,
is in an enclosed building or so that such vehicle cannot be seen from the
public way or abutting property.
Anyone wishing to display a motor vehicle for sale must first obtain
a permit from the Board of Selectmen, which, before issuing any such permit,
shall determine that displaying such vehicle will not depreciate neighborhood
property values, will not create a hazard to public safety and will not become
a public nuisance. Anyone then granted a permit to display such vehicle will
be allowed to display only one vehicle at a time for a period not to exceed
90 days, at which time said vehicle shall be removed. No person shall be allowed
in any calendar year to display more than two vehicles.

Any person guilty of a violation of this chapter shall be liable to
the Town of Orange in the amount of $100, which shall enure to the Town. Fines
shall be recovered by indictment, or on complaint before the District Court,
or by noncriminal disposition in accordance with MGL c.40, § 21D.
Each day of violation shall constitute a separate offense.
