This access shall be constructed by the applicant to the same standard as required in Condition 4. In the event that such consolidated entrance is provided, either the Virginia Department of Transportation ("VDOT") or the County's Director of Engineering may require the applicant to close the existing entrance shown on the Conceptual Plan, convert it to a right in/right out only entrance/exit, or require that other modifications be made to the entrance.

The security shall continue so that it is available to pay for the cost of the signal until ten (10) years after the date of approval of this special use permit; security provided that is not in an interest-bearing account shall be annually renewed, and the amount of the security shall be adjusted each year according to the consumer price index; (b) If, at any time until ten (10) years after the date of approval of this special use permit, VDOT authorizes in writing the installation of the signal, and VDOT and the County's Director of Engineering approve the signal's installation before the applicant has obtained a building permit for the fourth pavilion, the County may demand payment of the cost of the traffic signal, and the applicant shall pay the cost to the County within thirty (30) days; and (c) The County may apply the applicant's security to construction of the access road or other elements of the future transportation improvement project other than the traffic signal. 9.

For purposes of this section, the term "commenced" shall be construed to include the commencement of construction of any structure necessary to the use of such permit within two (2) years from the date of the issuance.
