A. One building for a temporary real estate sales office, and not more than six dwellings for temporary demonstration or model home purposes, may be provided. In addition, a subdivision containing more than 60 lots may use up to 10 such lots for model home purposes. Such temporary uses shall be made only in conjunction with the sale or rental of land or buildings within such subdivisions, and such use or uses shall terminate two years after the filing in the office of the county recorder of the final subdivision map thereon, or 60 days after the sale of the last house, whichever comes first. After the time limit has expired, all commercial activity shall cease and the temporary office building, if any, shall be converted to a conforming use or removed at the owner’s expense. At the termination of such office use, all necessary alterations to convert the temporary office to residential use or removal of said building shall be made.

B. If alterations are needed in the initial conversion from a house to a temporary office, the following shall be done: a $250.00 penal bond shall be filed with the City Clerk to assure said work will be completed. Upon a recommendation from the Director of Development Services, or designee, they shall approve or reject the final alteration work.

C. The Zoning Administrator shall determine the need for off-street parking, based on the location of model homes in relationship to adjoining subdivisions, the size of the subdivision, the character of the street, and the expected duration of model home area use.
