10 fines to be levied for the failure of any person to obey a
11 notice received from the county which states that such person
12 is to dispose of any inoperable motor vehicles under his or her
13 control. However, nothing in this Section shall apply to any
14 motor vehicle that is kept within a building when not in use,
15 to historic vehicles over 25 years of age, or to a motor
16 vehicle on the premises of a place of business engaged in the
17 wrecking or junking of motor vehicles.
18     As used in this Section, "inoperable motor vehicle" means
19 any motor vehicle from which, for a period of at least 6
20 months, the engine, wheels or other parts have been removed, or
21 on which the engine, wheels or other parts have been altered,
22 damaged or otherwise so treated that the vehicle is incapable
23 of being driven under its own power. "Inoperable motor vehicle"
24 shall not include a motor vehicle which has been rendered
25 temporarily incapable of being driven under its own motor power
26 in order to perform ordinary service or repair operations.
