(a) There shall be sight triangle established at every intersection of two (2) public rights-of-way. The sight triangle is the triangular area where two (2) streets intersect, bounded by the edge of the street and a line joining the points on the rights-of-way from their point of intersection for a distance equal to half the width of each street right-of-way. The vision triangle shall be measured along the right-of-way within the boundaries of the property.
(b) Visibility Maintained. There shall be no visual obstructions within the defined sight triangle. A visual obstruction is any object between the height of no more than three (3) feet measured relative to the elevation to the nearest pavement crown. This is based on a driver eye height of three feet (based on the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Official standards). Overhanging branches or other elevated obstructions shall not be any lower than ten (10) feet measured relative to the elevation of the nearest pavement crown.
