Where can a permanent supplemental lot be located?

A permanent supplemental lot can be located in the same or adjacent county as the principal location because regulations often dictate that supplemental locations remain within a reasonable proximity to the main dealership. This is to ensure better oversight, maintain customer service quality, and ensure compliance with local zoning and business laws.

Locating a supplemental lot in the same or adjacent county allows the dealership to manage both locations effectively while still serving the same customer base. It supports operational efficiency by ensuring that logistical aspects, marketing efforts, and branding can be coordinated smoothly between the primary and supplemental sites.

The other options suggest locations that either extend too far from the principal location or present legal and logistical challenges. For example, being in a different state may not comply with local dealership licensing regulations, whereas being limited to the same city could hinder a dealership’s ability to reach more customers or take advantage of more favorable zoning laws in adjacent areas.
