13-204 : Requirements for effective screening.

Screening may be accomplished using natural objects, earth mounds, landscape plantings, fences, or other appropriate materials used singly or in combination as approved by the city. The effect of the completed screening must be the concealment of the junkyard from view on a year-round basis.

  1. Screens which provide a "see-through" effect when viewed from a moving vehicle shall not be acceptable.
  2. Open entrances through which junk materials or junk vehicles are visible from the main traveled way shall not be permitted except where entrance gates, capable of concealing the junk materials when closed, have been installed. Entrance gates must remain closed from sundown to sunrise.
  3. Screening shall be located on private property and not on any part of the highway right-of-way.
  4. At no time after the screen is established shall junk or junk vehicles be stacked or placed high enough to be visible above the screen nor shall junk or junk vehicles be placed outside of the screened area. (as added by Ord. #2003-01, March 2003)
