Plain-language change summary

The updated bill has modified the language to clarify that it reduces the building restriction line along the southern side of Fern Street from 15 feet to 9.5 feet. This change simplifies the description by removing unnecessary wording about the "width" of the restriction line. By making this adjustment, the bill aims to make it easier for property owners to understand how close they can build to the street, potentially allowing for more efficient use of their land.
