Along all boundaries of a lot adjacent to property
in a residence district, there shall be a buffer strip composed of
evergreen planting of such type, height, spacing and arrangement as,
in the judgment of the Building Inspector, or of the Planning Board
where this chapter requires its approval of a site development plan,
will screen the activities on the lot from view of a person standing
at ground level on an adjacent residential lot. A wall or fence, of
location, height and design approved by the same official or agency,
may be substituted for the required planting. The width of the buffer
strip shall be such as said official or agency deems necessary to
accommodate the required buffer planting and/or wall or fence. The
plan and specifications for required planting shall be filed with
the approved plan for the use of the lot. Required planting shall
be properly trimmed and maintained throughout the continuance of the
use on the lot, as a condition of the certificate of occupancy.
