Where a commercial, office or nonresidential use abuts property in any residential zone, a masonry wall six feet in height, above the average elevation of the ground level within a six-foot radius of the point of measurement on the fence or wall shall be erected and maintained between such uses and the residential zone. Walls in the front yard setback shall not exceed heights of four feet. Alternatives that are equivalent to a six-foot masonry wall, including double-sided solid wood fencing, stuccoed wood frame walls, native stone or rock veneered walls or a dense live vegetative buffer, may be approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission or the Community Development Director or Zoning Administrator or his/her designee.
