17.48.020 Use regulations. 
   A.   All mobile homes or trailers shall be established upon a mobile home zoning district and those not in such district shall be considered nonconforming uses. Such use shall be permitted until any such mobile home or trailer is moved from its present location, destroyed by any means rendering it uninhabitable, is not inhabited for any continuous period of ninety days or more, or is found in violation of any other state statute or county or city ordinance if such violation(s) remain uncorrected for ninety days or more after notice to the tenant or owner of such mobile home. Delivery of the notice by ordinary mail to the address of the mobile home or posting of the notice setting forth the alleged violations shall be considered good and sufficient notice to owner or tenant for the purposes of extinguishing all rights of nonconforming use under this title.
   B.   In the event any such mobile home or trailer is moved from its present location or is otherwise no longer qualified for a nonconforming use under the provisions of subsection A above, then the mobile home or trailer shall be removed immediately from its present location and no substitute mobile home or trailer can be moved into or anywhere upon the location.
   C.   In the event the owner or his agent fails to remove the mobile home or trailer within thirty days of expiration of the right of nonconforming use as provided for above, then the city is authorized to seize and remove the mobile home or trailer and file a lien for all costs and expenses incurred for the removal, against the property upon which the mobile home was located, or bring suit for the costs or expenses, or both, at city's option.
   D.   Upon the termination of such nonconforming use, either by removal of a trailer or mobile home or by any of the eventualities or provisions set forth above, the space occupied by the mobile home or trailer shall be governed by the respective district in which the property is located.
