§ 79.01 DECLARATION OF PUBLIC INTEREST.
   (A)   The physical appearance of residential neighborhoods make a significant contribution to the total community image. The allowance of reasonable amount of vehicular parking and storage without having a detrimental effect upon residential neighborhoods is needed. It is necessary to regulate the location for parking and storage of vehicles in order to prevent the creation of pedestrian and vehicular safety hazards. Vehicle parking and storage can adversely impact the character of residential neighborhoods, therefore it is necessary to:
      (1)   Limit the number of vehicles which can be parked or stored outside of a building;
      (2)   Establish the areas in which recreational vehicles can be stored;
      (3)   Impose weight limitations upon the types of vehicles which can be stored in residential areas.
   (B)   The regulations prescribed in this chapter shall not supersede nor nullify private covenants that may lawfully impose other restrictions on the use of property.
(Prior Code, § 19-1300)
§ 79.02 VEHICLE PARKING AND STORAGE REQUIREMENTS WITHIN RESIDENTIAL ZONE.
   (A)   Purpose. The purpose of this section is to regulate the parking and storage of vehicles in residential zones. The city recognizes that the parking and storage of various types of vehicles is customarily accessory to residential uses.
   (B)   It shall be illegal to park or store in a residential zone:
      (1)   Any vehicle with a gross vehicle weight rating (G.V.W.R.) of 10,001 pounds or greater outside an enclosed building on or within public right-of-way.
      (2)   Any construction vehicles, equipment or trailers required to move such equipment not in an enclosed building on private property or within the public right-of-way unless authorized by a city parking variance permit.
      (3)   Any vehicle in a driveway in such manner that it creates a pedestrian or vehicular safety hazard.
(Prior Code, § 19-1301)
§ 79.03 LIMITATION ON NUMBER OF VEHICLES; OUTSIDE.
   Subject to § 79.01(A)(2), the maximum number of vehicles parked shall be one vehicle per licensed driver up to three per occupied residence. This limitation shall apply to the parking of vehicles on or in the public right-of-way within 500 feet of the occupied residence, measured linearly along the road/street right-of-way. This restriction shall not apply to the parking of guest vehicles as long as said parking does not exceed ten days.
(Prior Code, § 19-1302) (Ord 1028-14, passed 8-18-2014)
