(a) Roof structures for the housing of elevators, stairways, tanks, ventilating fans or similar equipment required to operate and maintain the building; fire or parapet walls, skylights, towers, steeples, stage lofts, and screens, flagpoles, chimneys, smokestacks, radio and television aerials, wireless masts, water tanks or similar structures shall be permitted to exceed the maximum height set forth for the district in which the structure is located provided:

(b) Waste Receptacles. All solid waste products, including empty packing boxes, that result from any permitted principal, conditional or accessory use shall either be disposed of, stored in buildings, or completely enclosed in containers. Such building, container or dumpster shall be located in a side or rear yard on a paved surface in compliance with the minimum parking setbacks established in Chapter 1161 as well as the screening requirements set forth in Section 1171.06.
