This is the Delayed Drawn symbols that strikes. This features reapplies symbols after the effect pass to handle certain visual problems, but it only applies to non-building symbols (And with building symbols, I really mean symbols with built-in roof shading, like that tree also has)

Might be better to separate those into different sheets, but you can also fix it by disabling delayed drawn symbols, juts type DELAYDRAWSYM (enter) on the command line, and answer the prompt with 0 for disabled.

Note that this lasts the current CC3+ session, it is not a per-map setting.
