Upon determination by the Zoning Officer or his/her designee to grant administrative relief, the relief so granted shall be limited to the owner of that specifically registered vehicle and trailer at the specific property upon which the registration indicates the vehicle and trailer shall be parked/stored. The relief granted shall not be transferable should the owner obtain a new or different vehicle or trailer, nor shall the relief granted be transferable by the owner of the property or the vehicle and trailer so registered hereunder to any subsequent property owner or subsequent vehicle or trailer owner in any manner whatsoever.

(8) 
For purposes of registration and the relief granted hereunder, trailers used for recreational vehicles and boats shall be subject to the same restrictions and limitations as the recreational vehicles and boats towed thereby.
