An enclosed garage or other permanent building lawfully constructed of opaque materials without openings, holes or gaps other than doors and windows; b. A carport, and an opaque car cover designed for that purpose (and not including tarps, bed sheets, plastic sheeting, or similar materials) completely covers the body of the vehicle; or c. The rear yard or side yard and screened by any fence, wall or barrier, not less than five (5) feet in height, constructed of opaque materials which screens it from view from any adjacent properties and the public right-of-way, and is equipped with self-latching gates or doors. Such fence, wall or barrier must comply with section 16-12(e). (c) Persons Responsible: Whenever the city finds that any junked or inoperable vehicle is stored on private property or on any abutting sidewalks, streets or alleys in violation of this section, the persons responsible for the violation include the recorded owner, occupant or person in control of the private property, as well as the registered owner or custodian of the vehicle. |
