grace period. Any temporary storage unit which is not removed at the end of the initial time period permitted under this section or granted under the permit issued will be subject to a daily fine as set by the Town Board until the matter is resolved by the owner or property manager of the property in violation of the Town of Wales Code. If the temporary storage unit is not removed after 10 days from the initial notice of the violation by the C.E.O., or if the unit poses a threat to the health, safety or welfare of the residents and visitors, the Town may have it removed without notice, with the cost of such removal, as well as the cost associated with the administration of its removal, assessed against the property. D. Temporary storage units shall be no greater than 320 square feet in area and eight feet in height. E. Only one temporary storage unit may be located on a property at any given time unless special circumstances arise, such as those listed in Subsection C(2). F. The placement of any temporary storage unit shall be subject to the following requirements: (1) The unit must be placed on the driveway or a hard-packed surface of the property and must adhere to the rear and side setback requirements of the respective zoning district. (2) No temporary storage unit may be placed in a public right-of-way (ROW) or on the front yard of the property unless permitted by the C.E.O., due to unusual circumstances (i.e., no driveway, no back or side yard, etc.). Different regulations may be applied under these circumstances, such as the amount of time the unit may be stored on the property, etc. G. No signage other than the signage indicating the owner of the temporary storage unit may be allowed on the structure. H. Storage of hazardous materials within temporary storage units is strictly prohibited. A violation of this stipulation will result in the immediate revocation of any permission or permits issued under any subsection of this section, and the immediate removal of the temporary storage unit(s) from the property. If removal of said unit(s) must be done by the Town, any expenses incurred in such removal may be assessed to the property owner where said unit(s) is/are located. ARTICLE IX Nonconforming Uses § 200-57. Continuation of existing uses. Except as provided in this section, any lawful nonconforming use of any structure or land existing on the effective date of this chapter may be continued. § 200-58. Discontinuance. In any district, whenever a nonconforming use of land, premises, building or structure has been discontinued for a period of one year, such nonconforming use shall not thereafter be reestablished, and all future use shall be in conformity with the provisions of this chapter. § 200-59. Change in use. Once changed to a conforming use, no building or land shall be permitted to revert to a nonconforming use. A nonconforming use may be changed to a use of the classification, and, when so changed to a more restricted classification, such use thereafter shall not be changed to a less restricted classification. 35
