The following listing is included in this Code as a ready guide for the user to determine whether the Code volume properly reflects the latest printing of each page. In the first column all page numbers are listed in sequence. The second column reflects the latest printing of the pages as they should appear in an up-to-date volume. The letters "OC" indicate the pages have not been reprinted in the Supplement Service and appear as published for the original Code. When a page has been reprinted or printed in the Supplement Service, this column reflects the identification number or Supplement Number printed on the bottom of the page. In addition to assisting existing holders of the Code, this list may be used in compiling an up-to-date copy from the original Code and subsequent Supplements.

Such equipment shall not be inoperable, wrecked, junked, partially dismantled or abandoned. Major repairs or overhauling shall not be conducted on the site.

No fee shall be charged for such application. (a) An applicant seeking an exception to the dimensional requirements or rear setback requirement shall be required to demonstrate that the applicant meets all other require- ments of this section including, but not limited to, required screening, and that the equipment will not significantly affect the natural light or increase the shadows or shade on an adjacent property to the extent that the storage of the equipment on the applicant's property has a negative impact on the neighbor's enjoyment of his or her property. (b) The application shall be accompanied by the following information: 1. Documentation demonstrating equipment ownership and date of acquisition; 2. Identification of the location of the equipment as evidenced by photographs and/or a sketch; and 3. Identification of the wall, fence or vegetation utilized for screen- ing in relation to adjacent properties as evidenced by photographs and/or a sketch.

(d) The applicant shall be required to notify all adjacent property owners, including the owners of properties separated from the applicant's property by a public or private right- of-way, of the council's consideration of the dimensional exception applica- tion. Such notice shall be on a form supplied by the community develop- ment department. Ownership shall be determined utilizing the county property appraiser's database. At least seven (7) days prior to the village scheduling the dimensional application for consideration by the village council, the applicant shall provide a notarized certification that such notice has been provided to all adjacent property owners either via first class mail or hand-delivery. No additional notice shall be required. (e) A dimensional exception shall not run with the property and the sale of the property, a change in the occupant of the property, or a change in the ownership of the equipment shall terminate the approval. Once a dimensional exception has been granted by the village council, any increase in the size of the equip- ment or significant alteration of the required screening, including, but not limited to, the removal of a hedge or living vegetation on adjacent property, shall require a new application. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a resident who has been granted a dimensional excep- tion acquires new equipment of the same or smaller dimension that still exceeds the dimensional require- ments set forth in subsection (6) above, he or she shall be required to apply for administrative approval on a form supplied by the com- munity development department.
