County to consider acreage-based limits for inoperable vehicles outside shoreland districts
Planning staff proposed changing the county's unlicensed/inoperable vehicle allowance from a flat two-vehicle limit to an acreage-based scale (up to 10 vehicles depending on lot size) outside shoreland districts; staff said setbacks and county attorney enforcement would still apply.

The proposal also adds setback requirements so vehicles must meet right-of-way and property-line distances.
