A Sentence meaning 2

Hi,
There are two other sentences in this article which I can't make out of it:

1- Vehicle or outdoor storage on any tower site is prohibited.
2- On site parking on an approved concrete surface for periodic maintenance and service must be provided at all antenna or tower locations consistent with the underlying zoning district.

Would anybody please clarify and explain the two. These are two rules for constructing mobile masts in Texas which I found contradicting.

Thank you in advance,

Iman

No, I don't mean that. I mean that native speakers will understand it perfectly, but it's not the word they would use, so it will more or less give you away as not being a native speaker or writer.
