EXHIBIT C Sec. 58-1. Maintenance of private property. (a) It is the duty of the owner of every vacant property and the owner and occupant of every occupied property to maintain the property in a neat, clean and presentable manner free of any junk, debris, refuse, litter, dead trees, or noxious weeds, and to remove all other public health or safety hazards from the property. (c) Any violation of this section is declared to be a nuisance and a public safety and welfare hazard, and upon seven days' written notice to the owner, as shown by the records of the office of the county auditor, of private premises on which such material is found or any conditions in violation of this code section exist, the city may remove such matter or correct any conditions in violation, and certify the cost of such removals or corrections as any other special assessment. Sec. 58-3. Junk cars, furniture, household furnishings and appliances stored on public or private property. It is unlawful to park or store any unlicensed, unregistered or inoperable motor vehicle lacking essential parts, household furnishings or appliances, or parts or components, on any property, public or private, unless housed within a lawfully erected building. Any violation of this section is declared to be a nuisance; and upon seven days' written notice to the owner, as shown by the records in the office of the county auditor, of private premises on which such material is found, the city may remove the vehicle and certify the cost of such removal as any other special assessment. For the purpose of this section, an inoperable motor vehicle shall be defined as lacking parts essential to operation, including but not limited to wheels, tires, motor, drive train, battery; or having two or more flat tires; or having the interior, including the driver's position, used for storage in such a manner that no person can operate the vehicle. Sec. 78-1577. Exterior storage in R districts. (4) (Storage of boats and boat trailers.] Boats, unoccupied boat trailers, and boats on trailers shall be subject to the following storage requirements when not stored for commercial purposes: a. Licensing, operability and restorations. All boats stored outside on a residential property shall be licensed to the owner or occupant of the property. All boats stored on a property shall be in operable condition, except that inoperable boats under active restoration may be stored on a property for not more than two years, the intent being to discourage the long-term storage of inoperable boats on residential property. 1
