A. The following landscape and screening requirements shall apply to premises when used for multi-family, mobile home parks with community dumpster service or nonresidential uses:
1. Areas used to hold general trash and other refuse containers shall be screened from the general public's view with a solid masonry (block) fence not less than six feet (6') in height and shall have opaque doors constructed of either wood or metal. If the refuse area adjoins a landscape area, an additional screen landscape hedge may be required by the city.
2. Exterior ground mounted equipment, including mechanical equipment, utility meter banks, and heating/cooling equipment, must be screened from the general public's view with landscaping of sufficient height to satisfy the intent of this regulation with perpetual maintenance to be incidentally accomplished to retain such screened effect.
3. All rooftop equipment must be screened from the general public's view with an architectural treatment which is compatible with the building's architecture. The methods of screening rooftop equipment include the use of parapet walls, and the encasement of partition screens.
4. All materials, products, or equipment which are stored outside of a fully enclosed building, other than for display (sales) purposes, must be entirely screened from the general public's view.
5. For the purposes of this specific section, "screened from the general public's view" means not visible at eye level from any point on the lot line of the abutting premises or from any point on the adjoining street. (Ord. 09-04-15, 4-21-2015)
