Under Mascoutah Ch. 29 Art. III § 29-3-13, residential properties are generally limited to no more than one unregistered or uninspected motor vehicle at a time. That vehicle may not be in a state of major disassembly, disrepair, stripping, or dismantling. Additionally, major mechanical or body work on any vehicle is prohibited in a residential district unless the work takes place inside a fully enclosed structure.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers operating in Mascoutah residential districts should be aware that § 29-3-13 limits the number of unregistered or uninspected vehicles permitted on a property to one. Compliant operators generally ensure that no vehicle on the premises is visibly stripped, dismantled, or undergoing major repairs in the open. When tenants perform vehicle maintenance, operators typically confirm that any significant overhaul or body work occurs within a garage or similarly enclosed space.

Section 29-3-13 of Mascoutah's property maintenance code sets limits on how many unregistered or uninspected vehicles may be kept on residential property and restricts open-air vehicle disassembly or major repair work. Tenants have an interest in understanding these rules, as violations on a property can affect habitability and neighborhood conditions. Those who believe a violation is occurring may consider contacting Mascoutah's code enforcement office or consulting a local tenant-rights organization to understand available options.
