351.11 PARKING ON PRIVATE PROPERTY.

   (a)    No person shall park a motor vehicle on private property used for residential purposes between the front building line (or the side building line on a corner lot) and the street line unless the motor vehicle is parked on a driveway. "Front building line" and "side building line" shall have the same meanings as provided in Section 1133.04 of these Ordinances.

   (b)    Nothing in subsection (a) shall be construed to alter the requirements for long-term outdoor storage of vehicles as provided in Section 1133.04 of these Ordinances.

   (c)    No person shall be cited under subsection (a) hereof if the owner of the property has been granted a variance under Section 1113.16 of these Ordinances to use the front or side yard for vehicle parking, and the parking is in strict compliance with the terms of the variance. The existence of an applicable variance and strict compliance with the terms thereof is a full defense to a citation.

   (d)    No person shall park a motor vehicle so as to obstruct a private driveway or private street.

   (e)    If an owner of private property post on the property in a conspicuous manner, a prohibition against parking on the property or conditions or regulations under which parking is permitted, no person shall do either of the following:

      (1)   Park a vehicle on the property without the owner's consent;

      (2)   Park a vehicle on the property in violation of any condition or regulation posted by the owner. (ORC 4511.681)

   (f)    No person shall park a commercial vehicle with a gross weight in excess of 10,000 pounds on any property in a residential zoning district, except for loading or unloading.
