Fences and wall are permitted or required subject to the following:
(A) Obscuring walls and fences shall be provided and maintained at a height of between 5-1/2 feet and 8 feet above the ground where commercial and industrial uses, including the screening of required parking areas, are adjacent to and abut side and rear yards of residential uses and districts, unless this chapter requires a taller wall or fence.
(B) Required walls and fences shall be located on the lot line except where underground utilities interfere. Upon review of the site plan, the Planning Commission may approve an alternate location for the wall or fence or may modify the wall or fence requirement by approving either an earth berm or evergreen screen in its place. The Planning Commission may also waive the wall or fence requirement if in specific cases where cause can be shown that no good purpose would be served by the screening requirement.
