necessary for completion of the construction or alteration. The owner and occupant of any lot
<br />upon which improvements are constructed shall, at all times, keep the lot, parcel and streets,
<br />being utilized by such owner in connection with such construction, free from dirt, mud, garbage,
<br />trash or other debris which might be occasioned by such construction or alteration. Suitable dust
<br />and erosion control measures shall be used at all times.
<br />2.6 Noxious Activities. No trades, services, activities, operations or usage shall be
<br />permitted or maintained, nor shall anything else be done which may be or may become a
<br />nuisance to the owners or occupants, or offensive or detrimental to the property by reasons of;
<br />a. unsightliness; or
<br />b. the emission of fumes, odors, glare, vibration, gases, radiation, dust, liquid
<br />wastes, smoke or noise of a nature and quantity prohibited by the laws of the
<br />State of Minnesota and the United States.
<br />2.7 Temporary Structures. No temporary building or other temporary structure shall
<br />be permitted on any lot or parcel; provided, however, that trailers, temporary construction
<br />buildings, and the like, shall be permitted for construction purposes during the period of
<br />construction or alteration of a permanent building. Such structures shall be placed as
<br />inconspicuously as practicable, shall cause no inconvenience to owners or occupants of other lots
<br />or parcels, and shall be removed not later than 30 days after the date of substantial completion
<br />for beneficial occupancy of the building in connection with which the temporary structure was
<br />used.
<br />2.8 Mechanical Equipment/Structures. All mechanical equipment shall be located or
<br />screened so as not to be visible from streets. Penthouses and mechanical equipment screening
<br />shall be aesthetically incorporated with those of the building. Mechanical equipment located on
<br />a roof top may be painted to be compatible with the building, rather than screened, if expressly
<br />allowed by the Architectural Review Board. No private water towers, water tanks, tents,
<br />elevator housing, equipment, signs, towers or gravity flow storage shall be permitted without
<br />the written approval of the Architectural Review Board.
<br />2.9 Building Density. Buildings and enclosed structures shall cover not more than
<br />35% of the total area of a lot or parcel. Buildings, enclosure structures, parking areas,
<br />driveways and other surfaced, nonvegetated areas shall not cover, in the aggregate, more than
<br />85% of the area of a lot or parcel.
<br />2.10 Screening of Service Facilities and Storage Areas. Garbage and refuse containers
<br />shall be contained within buildings, or shall be concealed by means of shrubbery or screening
<br />walls of materials similar to and compatible with that of the buildings. Fuel and other storage
<br />tanks shall be integrated with the concept of the building plan, be designed so as not to attract
<br />attention, and be inconspicuously located. Unless specifically approved in writing by the
<br />Architectural Review Board, no materials, supplies or equipment shall be stored in any area on
<br />a lot except inside a closed building or behind a visual barrier which screens such areas so that
<br />they are not visible from the Streets or from the front yard of adjoining lots.
