This chapter is intended to provide for the regulation and use of commercial coaches and/or temporary buildings.

(Prior code § 1909 (part))

For the purposes of this chapter of the city zoning code, the following definitions shall apply:

"Commercial coach" means any vehicle, licensed by the Department of Motor Vehicles, with or without motive power, designed and equipped for human occupancy for industrial, professional or commercial purposes.

"Temporary buildings" means all nonpermanent structures other than commercial coaches, designed and equipped for human occupancy or storage purposes that are installed or constructed for use during a specific period of time while permanent structures are being constructed.

(Prior code § 1909 (a))

It shall be unlawful for any person to use a commercial coach or temporary building in the city, unless such a use is conducted in accordance with the provisions set forth herein.

(Prior code § 1909 (b))

Use of commercial coaches or temporary buildings for industrial, professional or commercial purposes in the C-R, C-G, C-L, C-O, C-C, SR&D, SR&D-LM, Q and A zones is prohibited unless a current conditional use permit has been granted by the city's planning commission in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 17.68 of this code, except as provided for in Section 17.52.050. Upon showing of good cause by the applicant, the planning commission, under the conditional use permit, may allow the use of a commercial coach or temporary building for a period of up to twelve months and may, by a major modification to the conditional use permit, extend this use for an additional twelve months.

(Prior code § 1909 (c))

The use of a temporary building or a commercial coach to be used exclusively as an office or warehouse on the construction site of a permanent commercial professional or industrial facility (for which a valid building permit has been issued) may be installed with prior written approval of the planning director. Approval shall be based on the visual effects of the proposed structure on the surrounding properties and as a condition of approval, the applicant may be required to install landscaping around the temporary structure to ensure that it will be compatible with its surroundings. The planning director may permit the use for up to twelve months. Such temporary uses may be extended by the planning commission upon a showing of good cause by the applicant.

(Prior code § 1909 (d))

Before installation of the temporary building or commercial coach, all applicable state, county and city laws controlling installation and/or construction of the facilities shall be complied with and all necessary permits obtained.

(Prior code § 1909 (e))

All use of commercial coaches and/or temporary buildings shall comply with all applicable development standards of the zones in which the use is located, except as specifically exempted by the city's planning commission.

(Prior code § 1909 (f))
