A. A fence or wall not more than six feet in height may be maintained and located on any part of an interior or corner lot, to the rear of the required front and exterior side yard setbacks.

B. In any residential zone, a fence or wall not more than six feet in height may be maintained and located within a required exterior side yard subject to approval of the Zoning Administrator, who shall consider adjacent driveways, traffic hazards and topographic differences. A masonry wall shall consist of decorative features and a fence shall be interspersed with masonry pilasters a maximum of 15 feet apart to ensure a pleasing and aesthetic effect to the adjacent areas. Landscaping shall be required between the wall or fence and the sidewalk if said wall or fence is not located at the edge of a sidewalk.

C. Portions of fences or walls over six feet in height, to enclose tennis courts or other game areas, and located where six-foot fences are otherwise permitted, shall be composed of wire mesh capable of admitting at least 90 percent of available light as measured on a light meter. Such fences over six feet in height may be permitted subject to approval of the Zoning Administrator based on a finding that such fences will not constitute a nuisance to abutting property.

D. In any commercial or industrial zone, fences or walls may be allowed or required to a maximum height of nine feet if it is determined by the Zoning Administrator that said increase in height is necessary to protect the public health, safety or general welfare and would have no detrimental effect upon the surrounding neighborhood.
