   D.                 The Town Board may at its discretion upon application grant a temporary permit for the use of a residential trailer
         of similar portable unit for temporary residential purposes within the Town of Grant in conjunction with a home
         construction project that is underway, provided however, that a duly authorized and valid building permit shall have
         been issued by the Town Building Inspector prior to the application for said temporary trailer permit.
