The landscape buffer shall be placed on the inside of the screen wall and shall include, in addition to shrubs and groundcover, canopy trees at 20- to 30-foot intervals depending on the separation needed for the tree canopies to touch at maturity to form a noise, light, and visual screen above the screen wall. No other uses, such as, but not limited to, parking or storage, shall be permitted within the landscape buffer area.

         c.   Outdoor Storage Areas

         The project shall mitigate visual and noise impacts on residential uses, residentially zoned properties, and streets that may be adjacent to the site from outdoor storage areas (when permitted by the zone district requirements). The mitigation can be accomplished by locating these areas on-site and at least 200 feet from any residential use or residentially zoned property that is adjacent to the site . The areas should be screened or enclosed so that they are not visible from public streets , public sidewalks , internal pedestrian walkways, or adjacent residential properties. The screen shall be at least eight feet high and of masonry construction to assure the highest level of noise abatement and to confine any loose papers, cartons, and other trash. Storage materials shall not be visible above the screen wall. It is preferred that these outdoor storage areas be placed between buildings in a manner that would allow the buildings to act as screens .

         d.   Trash Collection Areas

The areas shall be screened or enclosed so that they are not visible from public streets , public sidewalks , internal pedestrian walkways, or adjacent residential properties. Screening and landscaping of these areas shall conform to the predominant materials used on the site . The screen shall be at least eight feet high and of masonry construction to assure the highest level of noise abatement and to confine any loose papers, cartons, and other trash. It is preferred that these trash collection areas be placed between buildings to allow the buildings to act as screens .
