§ 62-2132. Administrative permit for commercial vehicle parking at a residence.

(a)

Any residential property owner may request from the zoning official an administrative permit to park a commercial motor vehicle on a residential lot. Such a permit may be issued only under the following conditions:

(1)

The parcel must be a developed single-family residential lot of at least two and one-half acres in size.

(2)

The commercial motor vehicle must be operated by the occupant of the residence and must be essential to the occupant's principal means of employment.

(3)

The commercial motor vehicle must be maintained in operating condition.

(4)

The commercial motor vehicle may be a tractor cab but shall not include a trailer.

(5)

The commercial motor vehicle, or any equipment or machinery on the vehicle, may not for any reason be left running for extended periods of time.

(b)

Applicants for the administrative permit shall submit a letter to the zoning official setting forth the specific request and the need therefor. The letter shall have the following documents attached thereto:

(1)

A signed affidavit from all property owners within 200 feet indicating no objection to the requested permit.

(2)

Verification by certified survey, recorded deed or other means satisfactory to the zoning official to determine the size and developed status of the lot.

(c)

Failure of the applicant to obtain signatures of all property owners within 200 feet will result in denial of the administrative permit. Denial of the request for an administrative permit under the provisions of this section may be appealed to the board of county commissioners in public meeting. The county shall notify all property owners within 200 feet of the date, place and time of the meeting.

(d)

Administrative permits are valid for one year and are renewable for successive one-year periods. However, if the activity ceases to be compatible with the character of the neighborhood, as evidenced by code enforcement investigation, the permit shall not be renewed and may be revoked. The owner will be notified in writing if the permit is revoked or will not be renewed administratively. Renewals of permits that are revoked administratively or which are not renewed administratively may be reconsidered only by board of county commissioners action pursuant to subsection (c) above.
