[Ord. 1737, 2/5/2003, Section 4]
For any nonresidential use within the PO district, the following
additional screening requirements are required along the lot's perimeter
wherever it abuts an R-1- or R-2-zoned district or abuts a street
or alley adjacent to an R-1- or R-2-zoned district:
The entire length of the perimeter lot line so described must
contain a continuous, view- restrictive screen at least six feet in
height designed to obscure the view of commercial buildings and parking
areas from residentially-zoned districts. The screen's length must
be comprised of trees, shrubs or a combination thereof. A minimum
of 50% of the screen's length shall be evergreen material. All living
screening must be at least six feet in height at time of planting
and be spaced closely enough to provide for view restriction. Walls,
earth mounds, fences, or any combination thereof, may be included
with the living plant material to complement and provide variety to
the screen but may not be exclusively used for screening. Special
consideration should be given to form, color, texture, density, growth
habits and maintenance requirements. Grass or other living ground
cover shall be planted, mulched and maintained on all portions of
the landscape strip not occupied by other landscape material.
The foregoing regulations may be reduced to provide a view-restrictive
screen equivalent to 50% off the length of the perimeter lot line
whenever such lot line abuts an R-3-, R-3B- or R-4-zoned district
or it abuts a street or alley adjacent to an R-3- or R-4-zoned district.
The 50% requirement may not be met with a single continuous hedgerow;
rather, the creation of special design effect by grouping trees, shrubs
and other landscape features is encouraged.
