Amendment to the text of Chapter 35, Zoning, to modify standards regarding storage of motor vehicles, boats, trailers, RV's, and commercial vehicles in order to define permanent storage as presence for a period of 72 or more consecutive hours within a 30 day period (Section 35-41.13.16 Outdoor Storage and Display). The complete text of the amendment is available for review at the Department of Planning and Protective Services, 320 E. McCarty Street, or may be viewed at the Planning Division webpage at www.jeffcitymo.org. Mr. Barron described the proposal and explained that when the Code Enforcement Officers enforce the storage of large vehicles such as boats, RVs, and trailers in front of residences they sometimes run into problems where people move the item and bring it back immediately after the three day timeframe. He stated that it will be easier for them to enforce by adding specific language that an item can only be stored for three consecutive days within a 30 day period. Commission members expressed the following concerns: (1) how will this ordinance be enforced; (2) when does the 30 day time period begin; and (3) what keeps people from constantly moving a vehicle from one spot to another to avoid the three day time period. Mr. Nunn moved and Mr. Dutoi seconded to recommend approval of the proposed zoning code amendment to the City Council. The motion passed 8-0 with the following votes: Aye: Cotten, Deeken, Dutoi, George, Lester, Nunn, Vaughan, Yarnell
