Parcel 1 will have a 30-ft-wide ingress/egress easement for the benefit of Parcel 2. Parcel 2 will be ±7.41-acre (322,7780 sq ft), L-shaped, and encompass the access from Cader Lane, a truck parking and maneuvering area for the benefit of Parcel 1, no-build areas from which future structures will be restricted, and areas designated for future development of structures. The surface parking on both parcels will be shared under a reciprocal easement and maintenance agreement (REMA) for shared access, parking, surface drainage, private wet and dry utilities, and landscaping, providing for shared maintenance responsibilities exclusive of the existing building and any future buildings that may be constructed.
