and all gas meters must be located within three (3) feet of the building
foundation if located within front yards in all subdivisions in which
the final plat is approved by the Board of Aldermen after the passage

be planted on both sides and not less than three (3) feet from the
back of the ultimate curblines at intervals of from forty (40) to
sixty (60) feet. Only those tree species approved by the City may

thereof.

of a subdivision previously approved by the City of Smithville, or
