What is the code regarding winter storage of vehicles on property, other than in a designated parking area like the driveway?

Photograph taken today.

There are two issues at question based on the complaint. 1) Yard Parking and 2) temporary structures.

It was not immediately determined that the vehicle was parked on the yard. The photo the Code Enforcement inspector took shows the vehicle straight in the driveway. We will have to research the zoning files or city records to determine the approved length of the driveway.

The owner of the property will be notified of the complaint.

The question regarding the temporary structure will be based on the definition of temporary from the zoning ordnance. No permit is needed for a temporary structure that is "placed up to 10 consecutive days or 30 days within any 12-month period at the same location."

It is not a complaint. It is a REPORT, and the following comment is a REQUEST FOR INFORMATION. Your response is quick, educational and informative. Together these actions are a good example of successful community policing. The person who filed the complaint is a good citizen who cares about his/her neighborhood and our city. Thank you, thank you all of you.

Please contact me. I know who is responsible for this car in addition to other violations, but I don't want to do the "calling out" on the internet. The owner of this property has a "property manager." It is his car even though he has multiple DWIs and lost his license for life. He hd a falling out with a friend who decided to get his plastic back. It was recently replaced, the plastic, not the friendship. He plans to paint his car in the structure. He is also responsible for the garbage (couch, mattress, shutter, and more) outside of the building. In addition to this, tried to throw garbage into the Shopping Bag's dumpster and is now forever barred from the store. This person also lives in another property the same man owns on Cedar St and currently has a large TV broken on the greenbelt and additional garbage on the side of the house similar to La Fountain.

it is clear from looking at satellite photos of this property (those property value websites) that the driveway does not extend to the temporary structure.

I do know when this property manager cleans, the green belt gets dirty

We have code and enforcement so neighbors don't have to do it. All this mess you describe, just report it and let Bill and appropriate city staff handle it. They are doing a pretty good job.

I walked by today and finally got sick of seeing the build up of garbage, disposed couches, etc. on the southern lot line. This would seem to be a violation of 18-111(a)... been there since February.

After two fines the garbage has now been moved behind the "temporary structure with vehicle." Is this now in code compliance?
