B . Landscaping and Screeninq Design Standards .
1 . L1 , General Landscaping .
a . Intent . The Li standard is intended to be used where distance is the principal means of separating uses or
development, and landscaping enhances the area between them . The Li standard consists principally of
groundcover plants ; trees and high and low shrubs also are required .
b . Required Materials . There are two ways to provide trees and shrubs to comply with an L1 standard . Shrubs
and trees may be grouped . Groundcover plants , grass lawn , or approved flowers must fully cover the
landscaped area not in shrubs and trees .

2 . L2 , Low Screen .
a . The standard is applied where a low level of screening sufficiently reduces the impact of a use or development ,
or where visibility between areas is more important than a greater visual screen .
b . Required Materials . The L2 standard requires enough low shrubs to form a continuous screen three feet high
and ninety-five percent opaque year- round . In addition , one tree is required per thirty lineal feet of landscaped
area, or as appropriate to provide a tree canopy over the landscaped area . Groundcover plants must fully
cover the remainder of the landscaped area . A three -foot high masonry wall or fence at an F2 standard may
be substituted for shrubs , but the trees and groundcover plants are still required .
3 . L3 , High Screen .
a . The L3 standard provides physical and visual separation between uses or development principally using
screening . It is used where such separation is warranted by a proposed development , notwithstanding loss
of direct views .
b . Required Materials , The L3 standard requires enough high shrubs to form a screen six feet high and ninety-five
percent opaque year- round . In addition , one tree is required per thirty lineal feet of landscaped area, or as
appropriate to provide a tree canopy over the landscaped area . Groundcover plants must fully cover the
remainder of the landscaped area . A six-foot high wall or fence that complies with an F1 or F2 standard may
be substituted for shrubs , but the trees and groundcover plants are still required . When applied along street
lot lines , the screen or wall is to be placed along the interior side of the landscaped area .
4 . Fences .
a. F1 , Partially Sight-Obscuring Fence .
i . Intent . The F1 fence standard provides partial visual separation . The standard is applied where a proposed
use or development has little impact , or where visibility between areas is more important than a total
visual screen .
H . Required Materials . A fence or wall that complies with the F1 standard shall be six feet high , and at least
fifty percent sight-obscuring . Fences may be made of wood , metal , bricks , masonry, or other permanent
materials .
b . F2 , Fully Sight-Obscuring Fence .
i . Intent . The F2 fence standard provides visual separation where complete screening is needed to protect
abutting uses , and landscaping alone cannot provide that separation .
ii . Required Materials . A fence or wall that complies with the F2 standard shall be six feet high , and one
hundred percent sight obscuring . Fences may be made of wood , metal , bricks , masonry or other permanent
materials .
5 . The applicant may provide landscaping and screening that exceeds the standards in this chapter provided :
a. A fence or wall (or a combination of a berm and fence or wall ) , may not exceed a height of six feet above the
finished grade at the base of the fence or wall ( or at the base of a berm , if combined with one ) , unless the
approval authority finds additional height is necessary to mitigate potential adverse effects of the proposed
use , or other uses in the vicinity ; and landscaping and screening shall not create vision clearance hazards .
b . The Community Development Director may approve use of existing vegetation to fulfill landscaping and
screening requirements of this chapter , if that existing landscaping provides at least an eauivalent level of
screening as the standard required for the development in question .
c . Required landscaping and screening shall be located on the perimeter of a lot or parcel . Required
landscaping and screening shall not be located on a public riqht-of-wav or private street easement .
