Along all boundaries of a lot adjacent to property in a residence district, there shall be a buffer strip composed of evergreen planting of such type, height, spacing and arrangement as, in the judgment of the Building Inspector, or of the Planning Board where this chapter requires its approval of a site development plan, will screen the activities on the lot from view of a person standing at ground level on an adjacent residential lot. A wall or fence, of location, height and design approved by the same official or agency, may be substituted for the required planting. The width of the buffer strip shall be such as said official or agency deems necessary to accommodate the required buffer planting and/or wall or fence. The plan and specifications for required planting shall be filed with the approved plan for the use of the lot. Required planting shall be properly trimmed and maintained throughout the continuance of the use on the lot, as a condition of the certificate of occupancy.
