From the ordinance
Where a zoning permit is for expansion (over fifty percent (50%) of building area) or redevelopment (tear down and rebuilding) of a commercial use, the scale drawing shall show a transition between the commercial use and any adjacent residential properties. This transition may be achieved through the retention of established vegetation in the setback of at least twenty (20) feet, the planting of a double staggered row of evergreen trees (ten (10) feet on center and a minimum planting height of five (5) feet), or a six-foot board privacy fence with one (1) row of evergreens (ten (10) feet on center and a minimum planting height of three (3) feet) on the side of the fence adjacent to the residential use.
