Greenwood Lake, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 62 § 62-9 restricts the storage or use of commercial and industrial equipment and materials in spots visible from public sidewalks, streets, or other public areas, unless the property's zoning permits such activity. Even where storage is allowed, the height of stored materials may never exceed the height of the fencing appropriate for that zoning district. The rule applies to both the visibility of the materials and their physical height relative to fencing standards.

Operators managing properties in Greenwood Lake should review whether their zoning classification permits outdoor commercial or industrial storage before placing any such equipment or materials where it could be seen from a public sidewalk, street, or other public area, as required under ch. 62 § 62-9. Where storage is permitted by zoning, compliant operators generally ensure that stacked or stored materials remain at or below the height of the zone-appropriate fencing on the premises. Keeping documentation of applicable zoning approvals and conducting periodic site inspections are practices commonly associated with maintaining compliance with this provision.
