Under the ordinance, any inoperable vehicle -- except farm vehicles or moped-like vehicles -- will have to go or be screened from view. This includes any vehicles (except an antique vehicle) that does not have a valid license, decal and inspection sticker.
Exempted will be vehicles that are stored inside buildings, and a maximum of three inoperable vehicles which may be screened or covered, so long as they are not visible from a public right-of-way.
Penalities will begin at $100 if the county cites the owner of a junked vehicle, and goes up to $250 for additional summons, reaching a maximum of $5,000 for a series of violations.
