§ 8176-2.4. Accessory parking and storage of oversized vehicles.
The accessory parking and storage of oversized vehicles, including boats, attendant trailers and/or equipment, is allowed on residential, agricultural, or open space zoned lots if one of the following findings can be made:

1.
The vehicle is owned and operated by the person who resides on the property;
2.
The vehicle is operable; and
3.
The parking space does not displace the required parking for the designated land use and is in compliance with Section 8175-2, Schedule of Specific Development Standards.
b.
The oversized vehicle is required for emergency purposes and is either a government vehicle or under contract to a governmental entity; or
c.
The oversized vehicle is used for agricultural production, shipping, or delivery associated with the agricultural land use on the lot on which the vehicle is located.
d.
The oversized vehicle is temporarily parked for emergency repairs for a time period not to exceed twenty-four (24) hours.
e.
If parking for the oversized vehicle is included in the project description for a discretionary permit, and the Planning Director determines that the use of the on-site parking space for an oversized vehicle substantially degrades the existing visual character of the neighborhood, then the oversized vehicle shall be screened by a fence, wall or similar structure, or landscape screenings. Storage of an oversized vehicle shall be denied where the vehicle or its screening will adversely impact scenic or visual resources.
