warehouse square footage. In the event that a particular user's parking needs
exceed that provided within this Planned Development, the DevelopedOwner

III. SIGNAGE:
Due to the overall magnitude of the Project with approximately 2000 lineal feet of
frontage on two parallel streets and the potential of 1.9 million square feet of
building area, we would like to request the inclusion of one park identification
monument sign located along the frontage of Bethel Road. The sign will be
located 30' from the proposed future R.O.W. and will be developed in conjunction
with landscape retaining walls along the common property line, dividing Phase I
and Phase II. In concert with the common park sign, we would like to request the
inclusion of two tenant identification signs fronting on Bethel Road and two tenant
identification monument signs fronting on Creekview Drive. The signs will be
located 30' from the proposed street R.O.W.'s and no less than 75' from the
adjoining east and west property lines.
