§ 7.03.01. Temporary construction trailers.

A.

A temporary construction trailer is allowed upon receipt of a permit from the building official. As used herein, the term 'construction trailer' shall refer to a manufactured structure, upon wheels which may be removed after entering the construction site, in good repair and condition, designed and intended to be utilized as office space on a temporary basis on construction sites. The building official may issue no more than two (2) permits outstanding at any one time in any one subdivision. The permits shall specify the lot upon which the temporary construction trailers are to be placed and the lots for which the temporary construction trailers are to be utilized. A permit is to be issued for a period of two (2) years. The trailer is to be removed at the earlier of the expiration of the permit or completion of construction. No more than fifty (50) percent of the total floor space of a trailer may be used as a sales office. No signage shall be permitted indicating that the trailer is a sales office. At all times, the primary usage of the trailer shall be as a construction trailer utilized by contractors and subcontractors actually engaged in construction upon the lots for which the permit indicates it has been issued. Temporary construction trailers in excess of the numbers herein may be authorized by the comprehensive planning and zoning board as a conditional use.

B.

Paragraph A. of this section shall not apply to any temporary construction trailer or sales office for which a permit was issued by the building official prior to the adoption of this section. Such trailer or sales office shall be used in accordance with the permit and located within the project boundaries. The trailer shall be removed immediately upon completion of the project.

C.

A trailer upon public works projects being constructed under contract to a governmental entity may be permitted for the use of contractors, subcontractors, and engineers and architects for so long as the public works project is under construction.
