[Adopted 10-8-2013 by Ord. No. 1881]
The following terms shall take their respective definitions
for every provision of this article, except where the Code Enforcement
Officer reasonably finds otherwise:
The area of lawn, grass, gravel, rock, sand, or other substance
at the front of a residential property facing or abutting a City street
or road.
Any property which is used as a single-family or multifamily residence, as defined within Chapter 337, Zoning, or the county zoning code.
A truck, car, bus, trailer, recreational vehicle, boat, or
other large motor-operated machine used for transportation.
Only one vehicle may be parked in the front yard of any residential
City property, unless an exception is authorized by the Code Enforcement
Officer of the City. The Code Enforcement Officer may allow the parking
of a vehicle(s) in the front yard unless it constitutes a blight or
a threat to the health and safety of the community. All vehicles must
have a valid license and be fully insured.
A vehicle parked in a front yard must be parked at least one
foot from any existing sidewalk that runs parallel to a public or
private street, at least three feet from the street curb if there
is no sidewalk along the street frontage, and at least one foot from
the side lot line located within the front yard area.
No vehicle shall be used for a permanent residence while parked
in the front yard of a residential property.
Any violation of this article shall subject the owner of the
property and/or the owner of the offending vehicle to a fine of $50
for the first offense and $100 for each subsequent offense.
Upon prior notification from a property owner or vehicle owner who wishes to park more than one vehicle in a front yard, or who wishes to park in conflict with the provisions of § 331-30 above, the City Code Enforcement Officer may, at his discretion, allow other reasonable parking accommodations.
