   Shadows cast from any proposed multistory structure must be taken into consideration as to their effect on adjacent properties. Where such shadows adversely affect solar energy systems between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., a plot plan must show that the multistory structure has been reoriented on the site to mitigate this effect or that other measures have been taken to minimize the adverse effects of the shading.
