This chapter refers to and regulates any vehicle ordinarily classed or similarly defined as a "truck", "recreational vehicle", "boat", "trailer", "mobile home" or "inoperable vehicle". The definitions herein shall supplement and take precedence over similar definitions in chapter 2 of this title. (1977 Code § ZR-12-1)

   A.   Compliance With Provisions: Trucks, recreational vehicles, mobile homes, trailers and boats may not be parked or stored on any property within the Village except pursuant to the provisions and restrictions of this section and this title.

   B.   Storage; Shielding Requirements: No truck, recreational vehicle, trailer or boat shall be stored on any tract or parcel unless totally shielded from the view of other properties and public streets; provided, however, that a boat need not be so shielded when located on the bank of the pond or lake on which it is used. Shielding may be provided by residences, legal fencing, garages, legal storage buildings or landscaping and plantings when such screen provides a total year round shielding. Such storage shall constitute an "accessory building or use", as defined in this title, and must conform to all applicable sections of this title including setback requirements and provisions relative to incidental uses. Vehicles totally and legally "shielded" shall be permitted unlimited storage or parking within said shielding without a parking permit.

   C.   Unshielded Mobile Homes, Trailers, Boats And Vehicles:

      1.   Making Deliveries; Providing Services: Trucks, other commercial vehicles or contractors' equipment not so shielded may be parked on any tract or parcel when making a delivery or rendering a service at such site. The parking of a truck or contractors' equipment by the owner or operator of such vehicle or equipment at his place of residence shall not constitute the making of a delivery or the rendering of a service if such parking exceeds four (4) hours in any twenty four (24) hour period.

      2.   Loading And Unloading: Trucks, recreational vehicles, trailers or boats not so shielded may be parked on the resident's own tract or parcel off of the road right of way, for purposes of loading and unloading for a period or periods not to exceed four (4) nonconsecutive two (2) day periods in any calendar month, without permit. Parking for longer periods is permitted upon issuance of an annual permit to the property owner as provided in this chapter. Such annual permit parking is limited to a maximum of fourteen (14) consecutive (permit and nonpermit) days and no more than an aggregate of forty five (45) days in any three hundred sixty five (365) day period commencing with the date of the issuance of the permit to the property owner.

      3.   Mobile Homes:

         a.   A mobile home not so shielded may be parked for a period not to exceed fourteen (14) days upon issuance to the property owner of a permit as provided in this chapter. Temporary parking for a period in excess of fourteen (14) days may be permitted only by action of the Village Board.

         b.   A mobile home not so shielded may be used as a temporary office or shelter incidental to construction or development of parcels within a subdivision. Such mobile home may be placed within the subdivision only during the time construction or development is actively under way, and in no event shall such mobile home be located on the premises for a period in excess of one year unless permitted by action of the Village Board. No more than one mobile home for such purpose shall be permitted within any subdivision.

      4.   Storage Trailers: Storage trailers not so shielded may be used incidental to construction of parcels within a subdivision. Such trailers may be placed within such subdivision only during the time construction or development is actively under way, and in no event shall such storage trailers be located on the premises for a period in excess of one year unless permitted by action of the Village Board. (1977 Code § ZR-12-2)
