§ 80.22 REMOVAL OF JUNKED VEHICLE BY VILLAGE.
   Any junked motor vehicle found to be in violation of this subchapter may be removed to a storage garage or area, but no such vehicle shall be removed from private property without the written request of the owner, lessee, or occupant of the premises unless the Council or a duly authorized village official or employee finds in writing that the aesthetic benefits of removing the vehicle outweigh the burdens imposed on the private property owner. Such finding shall be based on a balancing of the monetary loss of the apparent owner against the corresponding gain to the public by promoting or enhancing community, neighborhood or area appearance. The following, among other relevant factors, may be considered:
   (A)   Protection of property values;
   (B)   Promotion of tourism and other economic development opportunities;
   (C)   Indirect protection of public health and safety;
   (D)   Preservation of the character and integrity of the community; and
   (E)   Promotion of the comfort, happiness, and emotional stability of area residents.
