Minimum 8' tall above the finished grade of any parking lots opaque fence to block out vehicular traffic lights, reduce noise and to provide visual screening on the northern property line (which is in the creek, therefore we'd want the fence to be on the upper bank of the southern side of the creek, which is the top of the gabions). 2.
