[Amended by 5-29-2007 ATM, Art. 19]
Only one unregistered motor vehicle, assembled or disassembled, shall be kept, stored or allowed to remain on a parcel of land, if the parcel is a single-family dwelling, or per unit, if the parcel is a multifamily dwelling, for a period of time not to exceed 90 days, except by a person duly licensed under MGL c. 140, § 59, and except as provided in §
115-2 of this chapter.
The Board of Selectmen may issue a permit to
keep, store or allow two, but not more than three of any such vehicles
to remain on a parcel of land after said Board has held a public hearing
thereon, first causing notice of the time, place and subject matter
of such hearing to be given at the expense of the applicant, by publication
at least once a week for three consecutive weeks in that newspaper
having the largest circulation in the Town, the last publication being
at least 10 days before the date of said hearing. Said Board shall
not issue such a permit unless it finds that the purpose of such vehicles,
as the case may be, on such parcel:
A. Will not nullify or substantially derogate from the
intent or purpose of this chapter;
B. Will not constitute a nuisance; and
C. Will not adversely affect the neighborhood in which
such parcel is situated.
[Amended by 5-29-2007 ATM, Art. 19]
Each such permit shall be:
A. Limited to a reasonable amount of time, which shall
not exceed 90 days; and
B. A personal privilege of the applicant and not a grant
attached to and running with the land.
This chapter shall not apply to vehicles which
are:
A. Stored within an enclosed building; or
B. Designed and used for farming, agricultural or construction
purposes.

to a penalty not exceeding $50 for each offense. Each day that any
violation is allowed to continue after said thirty-day period shall

this chapter shall constitute a separate offense.
