It is the intent of this Ordinance to allow the continuation of such non-conforming fences until they are discontinued as provided herein.

Such fences shall be regulated by the following provisions: a. No existing fence not permitted by this Ordinance in the district within which it is located, except when required to do so by law or ordinance, shall be enlarged, extended, reconstructed or structurally altered unless such fence is changed to one permitted in that district. Maintenance of a non- conforming fence will be allowed, however, when this includes necessary repairs and incidental alterations which do not expand or intensify the non- conforming fence. 7.

Screening shall also be provided where a business or industry is across the street from a residential zone, but not on that side of a business or industry considered to be the front (as determined by the Building Official).
