One of the common areas at the east property boundary shall be labeled on the site plan as a "potential future vehicular connection." This vehicular connection: (1) would not be the primary entrance to a future development east of the 2098 Johnston Road PUD, unless such property to the east is acquired by the owner of the 2098 Johnston Road PUD and developed as a future phase, and (2) could only be developed as a vehicular connection if the developer or successor in interest of the subject property and owner of a property to the east enter into a cross-access agreement and if the roadway is improved to County standards.

The Final Site Plan Traffic Impact/Concurrency Analysis shall evaluate a scenario in which the Angle Rd./Kings Hwy. intersection degrades to failure and/or FDOT improvements are delayed, whereas the County may require short-term developer- attributable safety and/or efficiency improvements prior to a Certificate of Occupancy, in advance of the final intersection design and improvement. 11.
