M-2 Districts, screening-type landscaping shall be provided around the exterior perimeter of the fence. [2] Screening shall consist of vegetation thickly planted and of such species that it will provide a complete visual barrier and thus obscure the use or structure from sight from adjacent properties once the vegetation reaches maturity or within five years, whichever comes first. Planting shall be located in such a manner that the vegetation at maturity shall not encroach onto adjacent properties. (g) Visibility. All telecommunications facilities and accessory structures shall be sighted in such a way as to have the least possible adverse effect on the visual environment. All non-concealed or -camouflaged facilities shall be of a galvanized finish or painted light gray or pale blue above any surrounding tree line while any portion below the tree line shall be painted gray, green, black or similar color and designed to blend into the natural environment or surrounding structures, unless otherwise required by the FAA. Furthermore, they shall be designed and sighted so as to avoid, wherever possible, application of FAA lighting and painting requirements. When located in any zoning district other than the M-1 or M-2 Districts, structures and facilities accessory to a monopole or tower shall use architecture, materials, colors and textures designed to blend with the natural environment and other structures in the general area The concealment or camouflaging of monopoles, towers and other telecommunication facilities, using industry standard techniques and structures such as artificial trees, architectural features on buildings, flag poles and grain silos, among others, is highly recommended and should be used wherever possible. (h) Additional provisions. All obsolete or unused towers and equipment shall be removed at the owner's expense within 12 months of the cessation of use.
