A. Trash Receptacles: All trash or refuse receptacle areas shall be completely screened from surrounding properties by a masonry wall or other material architecturally compatible with the building that is either a minimum of six feet (6') high or high enough to screen the height of the container or the container shall be enclosed within a building.

B. Mechanical Equipment: All ground mounted mechanical equipment including, but not limited to, heating and air conditioning units shall be completely screened from surrounding properties by a masonry wall or shall be enclosed within a building.
C. Roof Appurtenances: The use of roof appurtenances is discouraged. If roof appurtenances, including, but not limited to, air conditioning units, elevator shafts and mechanical equipment are used, they shall be designed to be architecturally compatible with the building or placed within an enclosure no taller than the absolute minimum needed. Such structures shall comply with the requirements for penthouses and roof structures of the International Building Code, as adopted by the State. Such enclosures require Planning Commission approval, and shall minimize visibility from on- site parking areas, abutting public streets, and abutting Residentially zoned property.
D. Utility Connections: All utility connections shall be compatible with the architectural elements of the site and not be exposed except where necessary.
