Permanent screening consisting of a masonry wall,
earth berm, wood fence, landscape materials or combination thereof,
at least eight (8) feet in height and not to exceed twelve (12) feet
in height, shall be required where a lot in this district abuts residentially
zoned land. The required screening shall have an opacity of at least
eighty percent (80%) year-round and, if landscaping is used, the eighty-percent

Screening Requirements For Exterior Storage.
(1)
All exterior storage areas shall be enclosed by
a permanent screen at least eight (8) feet in height above the ground
surface of the storage area. Required screening shall be constructed
in such a manner and with such materials as may be approved by the
Commission. In the event that an eight-foot screen is inadequate to
screen such an area, the Commission may require additional screening
in such a manner and of such materials as may be reasonably necessary
to adequately screen such from public view. However, in no event shall
the screen exceed twelve (12) feet in height, except for landscape
materials. In no event shall the stored or stacked materials or finished
products exceed the height of the required screening. The required
screening shall have an opacity of at least eighty percent (80%) year-round,
and if landscaping is used, the eighty-percent opacity shall be achieved
within four (4) full growing seasons. When a solid wall, or any solid
fence is used for screening, ornamental landscaping shall be placed
between the fence and the adjacent property lines.
(2)
Exterior storage areas shall have a permanently
dust-free surface.
(3)
No exterior storage of materials or finished products
on property subject to this Section is permitted except pursuant to
and in compliance with a screen plan approved by the Commission. Said
plan shall state location of buildings, proposed storage areas and
proposed screening, setback dimensions from property lines, elevation(s)
of proposed screening including building materials, and shall state
colors, height, and any other information the Commission may require.
(4)
The required screening shall be maintained in good
order and not allowed to exist in a state of disrepair or death. If
wood fencing is used, it shall be durable in nature or treated to
prevent rapid deterioration. Failure to maintain the required screening
shall be considered a violation of this Article.
