To insure that landscape materials do not constitute a driving hazard, a sight triangle shall be observed at all street intersections or intersections of driveways or alleys with streets in accordance with § 158.035. Within this sight triangle no landscape material nor other fixed object shall obstruct vision between a height of three feet and a height of 12 feet above the average elevation of the existing surfaces at the center line of each street, driveway or alley. Within the sight triangle, trees shall be permitted as long as, except during early growth stages, only the tree trunk (no limbs, leaves or the like) is visible between the three- and 12-foot limitations mentioned above. A similar exemption is allowed utility poles and traffic signs or lights.
