3. The completion and acceptance of phase 2 environmental audit; 
4. The adoption of an authorization by-law for a site plan control agreement that includes details of the landscaping, fencing and buffering required to address the abutting lands to the east and an integrated approach to storm water management between the subject lands and the lands abutting to the east; and
5. The completion and acceptance of a traffic study including the determination of an appropriate motor vehicle access onto the property and the operational impact of future traffic generated by the proposed residential development on the lands abutting to the east. 

Should the Holding Ten (H10) Zone symbol be removed, the zoning for the subject portion of the lands will be Residential Third Density Exception Thirty-Four (R3-34).
