(a)

On any corner lot in a residential district, there shall be no planting, structure, fence, retaining wall, shrubbery, or obstruction to vision more than three feet higher than the curb level within the triangle formed by the street right-of-way lines and a line connecting said street lines 25 feet from their intersection. On any corner lot in commercial or industrial district, no building or obstruction shall be permitted between a height of one foot and a height of ten feet higher than the curb level within the triangle formed by the street right-of-way line and a line connecting said street lines five feet from their intersection.

(b)

Trees, shrubs, flowers, or plants shall not be permitted or maintained on any required front, side, or rear yard, if they interfere with the safe use of the public street or sidewalk. Said landscape features shall be permitted in any required front, side, or rear yard, provided they do not interfere with public safety and do not produce a hedge effect contrary to provisions of section 30-26.

(c)

The setback and yard requirements of this chapter shall not be deemed to prohibit any otherwise lawful fence or wall which is not more than four feet high. However, a fence or wall along the rear lot line and along the side lot line to the rear of the required setback line may be erected to a height not exceeding seven feet. This provision shall not be deemed to allow any wall or fence more than three feet high as defined in article II of this chapter. Also, this provision shall not be interpreted to prohibit any open mesh type fence enclosing any school or playground.
