(a) The first ten feet, as measured from the back of the curb or curb equivalent inward toward the property, shall remain clear and unobstructed of development features, including gates, walls, fences, hedges, and raised planted areas.

(b) An applicant for architectural review shall provide a "clear area plan" as part of the application showing how the clear area will be treated.

(2) The clear area creates a safer condition for a pedestrian or cyclist than existed previously.

(e) Property owners in the overlay zone are not required to allow trespassers on their private property, other than a momentary occurrence to avert a traffic safety hazard if one arises.
