Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 553.02, it shall not be unlawful for any person to purchase used building materials and place or store them on any lot, lots, parts of lots, or parcel of land, when such materials are to be used by the purchaser or owner in later construction on the same lot or any lot owned or controlled by such person, provided that such materials shall not remain on such lot, lots, parts of lots or parcel of land, for a period of more than thirty days, unless the construction or erection planned for the use of such materials has commenced, and provided, further, that such materials are used or consumed in the construction or removed from the premises within a period of four months from the time such materials are first placed on the lot, lots, parts of lots or parcel of land. No person shall move any materials so stored or placed to another location within the Municipality for the purpose of avoiding the intent of this section, except that any such materials may be moved to another lot, lots, parts of lots or parcel of land, when the same have been sold to a bona fide purchaser for value for such purchaser’s own use.
