A. 
The Village Board of Trustees hereby finds that the storage of mobile homes, recreational vehicles, unregistered vehicles and trailers of any kind, except boat trailers, adversely affects the environment and community by creating a visual or environmental detriment. These visual and environmental detriments impair the beneficial use of real property in such areas, impair the stability and value of both the improved and unimproved real property in such areas, and produce a degeneration of the property and aesthetic character of such area and impair the proper relationship between the taxable value of real property in the community and the cost of municipal services provided therefor. These detriments, singly and in combinations, result in a deterioration of conditions affecting the health, safety, morals and general welfare of the inhabitants of the community.
B. 
No automobile trailer, travel trailer, or mobile home designed to be used for human habitation, unregistered motor vehicle, or commercial truck, crane, excavator, bulldozer, or similar construction equipment, or trailers of any kind, except boat trailers, or dumpsters shall be used, stored or parked in any residence district for more than 14 days total during any calendar year unless stored or parked within a fully enclosed private garage building or unless screen planting is provided sufficient to occlude the view of the item from all points off the premises, and the item's location meets all setback and other provisions of the Village Code. Construction site trailers are not permitted in any manner, unless used in connection with a bona fide construction project, and their use shall be specifically approved by the Architectural Review Board. All dumpsters shall be covered so as to prevent any refuse from overflowing the container.
C. 
No trailer or mobile home may be used for overnight habitation.
D. 
No automobile or vehicle that is nonoperable, unregistered or stored outside with a cover may be parked or stored for a period exceeding 14 days total during any calendar year unless it is kept inside a private garage or enclosure or set back from private or public view.

No portable storage container may be stored or parked in any residence district for more than a total of 30 days during any calendar year unless stored or parked at a location where the container is concealed at all times from neighboring property.

B. 
Any boat {regardless of size) stored or parked outside for more than 30 days in the Residence A-1 District must be substantially screened from public or neighboring view by means of evergreen plantings of sufficient density and maturity to substantially screen the boat from view. Any boat in the Residence A-2 District shall be set back from the street line a minimum of 20 feet.
C. 
No more than one boat of any length may be stored on each residential parcel unless kept inside a private garage or enclosure screened or set back from private or public view.
