Masonry walls six (6) feet high shall be erected along all boundary lines, except that along all street boundaries the wall shall be erected five (5) feet from the right-of-way line. The area between the wall and the street shall be planted in ground cover. Trees or shrubs shall be planted within a ten (10) foot strip adjacent to the inside of all boundary walls unless an interior street adjoins a perimeter wall. All trees and shrubs planted shall be of a variety that will grow to a height of not less than fifteen (15) feet and shall be planted at intervals so that at maturity the trees or shrubs will provide solid screening of mobilehome park or mobilehome subdivision. All planting shall be maintained in a growing condition. In mobilehome subdivisions, approved provisions shall be required for the continued maintenance of the landscaped common area surrounding the development by a community association composed of the owners of the individual lots or other legal entity providing for participation by the individual lot owners in the responsibility and cost thereof.
