§ 24-440. Abandonment of vehicles prohibited.

No person shall leave unattended any motor vehicle, trailer, semitrailer or mobile home on any public street or highway or private or public property in the village for such time and under such circumstances as to cause the vehicle to reasonably appear to have been abandoned. Whenever any such vehicle has been left unattended on any street or highway in the village or upon private or public property without the permission of the property owner or other person charged with the lawful jurisdiction thereof for more than 48 hours, the vehicle shall be deemed abandoned and constitutes a public nuisance. A motor vehicle shall not be considered an abandoned motor vehicle when it is out of ordinary public view.
