§ 213-425. Buffers and landscaping.

A. 

The minimum landscaped area shall be a ten-foot wide suitably planted strip running along the front yards of the site. The Planning Board shall have authority to waive or reduce the requirement in approving any site plan, provided that an equivalent area is added to landscaping elsewhere and not otherwise required on site, and the Planning Board finds that such action would further the interests of this chapter and Chapter 186, Site Plan Review.

B. 

There shall be a planted buffer along the border with any parcel zoned or employed for residential purposes. The planted buffer shall be a minimum of 10 feet wide and shall contain evergreens which are at least six feet in height when planted and set approximately six feet apart. There shall also be a six-foot-high fence of type and design as set by the Planning Board during site plan review. However, if fencing is placed within 20 feet of any right-of-way, said fencing shall be four feet in height and said evergreens planted and maintained at four feet in height.
