Wherever a greenbelt is required, it shall be made fertile and be planted within six (6) months from the date of issuance of a permit for use, and thereafter reasonably maintained with permanent materials to provide a suitable screen from adjacent properties in conformance with the following standards:
   (A)   Minimum planting width shall be three feet (3').
   (B)   Plant materials, if adjacent to a fence line, shall not be placed closer than four feet (4').
   (C)   Plant materials shall be in sufficient density and height to provide for an effective screening of view on a year round basis from adjacent properties.
