The keeping, storage or abandonment of any motor vehicle not
currently used for transportation, and not licensed for operation
in the current year, upon lands within the limits of the Borough of
Lincoln Park is hereby declared to be contrary to the public health,
safety and welfare of the inhabitants of the Borough, in that the
exposure to view of such motor vehicles is unsightly and detrimental
to the character and appearance of the Borough. For the purposes of
this article, any house trailer, truck trailer or tractor shall be
deemed a motor vehicle and within the intendment of this regulation.
No person shall keep, store, abandon or leave upon any lot or
parcel of private property within the Borough any of the following:
A. A motor vehicle having an expired registration for more than three
months, and not currently used for transportation.
B. Used machinery or equipment.
Whenever it shall appear to the governing body of the Borough
of Lincoln Park that the presence upon any lands within the municipality
of a motor vehicle not currently used or licensed or any unused machinery
or equipment is detrimental to the general health, safety and welfare
in that it is unsightly, the owner or tenant or other occupier of
such land shall be required to remove therefrom such motor vehicle,
machinery or equipment or to place the same in a garage or other enclosed
structure within five days after receipt by such owner or tenant of
written notice to do so from the Borough Clerk or Zoning Officer.
This notice may be served personally upon the owner, tenant or other
occupier of such land or may be directed to such person by certified
mail.
This article shall be enforced by the Building Inspector and
Zoning Officer.
