1177.06 BUFFERING AND LANDSCAPING.
   (a)   Landscaping. Each lot shall be so landscaped as to preserve, to the extent possible, existing contours, trees, bushes, ponds, lakes, streams and other natural features of a Headquarters or Executive Offices Park and in a manner that will make the lots compatible in appearance and that will preserve and enhance the effect of the Park as being an integrated unit.
   (b)   Buffering. Buffers are walls, fences, landscaping and landscaped mounds used to shield the site from adjacent areas, streets and highways.
      (1)   Buffers consisting of landscaped mounds at least five feet high and having a base at least fifteen feet wide shall be used along all portions of the gross site area abutting through streets and highways except interstate highways bearing an "I" designation. Where landscaped mounds cannot be used due to the contour of the land, spruce, hemlock or pine trees at least six feet high, planted in two rows of staggered plantings, the rows to be approximately ten feet apart and the trees to be planted ten feet on center, may be used.
      (2)   A buffer consisting of a six-foot high vision-impairing wall of face brick or split face brick shall be used along all portions of the gross site area abutting or adjoining Class U-1, U-2, U-2-A and U-3 Districts.
      (3)   Rubbish and garbage collection areas shall be buffered in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 1355 of the Building and Housing Code.
