(2) Wherever a commercially or industrially zoned lot shares a property line with an exclusively residential or a mixed use zoned lot, any exterior new structure, or addition to an existing structure, that exceeds one story in height and that faces any rear or side lot line shall be set back twice the required setback.
(3) Whenever a commercially or industrially zoned lot shares a side or rear property line with an exclusively residential or a mixed use zoned lot, a six-foot tall solid masonry wall shall be provided, along or adjacent to all such side and rear lot lines pursuant to § 153.160.050. The wall shall conform to the height regulations applicable to front yard areas of the residentially zoned lot having the common lot line.
