Preliminary Plat and Preliminary Site Plan Review: SymphonyAt Ramsey Town Center May 12, 2005 J Block 3 The design of the trail along Bunker Lake Blvd. must be straightened and c{m?;tructed to within 1 foot of the property line of the plat.

The structures fronting on 146th Avenue comply with the 20 foot maximum .~etback restriction.
