All garbage, trash or recyclable containers or cans must be restricted to appropriate and not unsightly storage areas located at least fifteen (15) feet from the nearest property line and screened by appropriate planting, enclosure or otherwise, if needed. All rubbish, trash, and garbage shall be removed from the Lots and shall not be allowed to accumulate thereon. No incinerators shall be kept or maintained on any Lot.
