The screening required hereby shall be a masonry wall or a solid wooden fence five feet in height, except that any portion thereof situate in the required setback area from abutting public streets shall be not more than four feet; and in the event such use included any outdoor activity, such screening shall also include such trees or plants as the director deems reasonable necessary to effectively screen such use from the adjoining residence district. Such screening shall at all times be maintained in good condition and be kept free at all times of signs. In addition, where a use involving outdoor activity is on a lot or parcel adjoining a residential district, such lot or parcel shall be landscaped in a manner approved by the director.
