9. Vehicular access to Lots 10 through 13 for construction and non-construction traffic may be temporarily provided by way of the Emergency Vehicle Access (EVA) connection to Montevino Drive until such time as the public street/cul-de-sac connection to Clara Lane or Vineyard Avenue is achieved. 10. A quick completion of the Clara Lane extension to Road `A' of the development covered by this project is urged. As part of the project, the applicants will construct the public infrastructure needed specifically for their proposed project, such as the Clara Lane extension and public utility line connections. This construction may benefit other properties, such as the Nespor and Hatsushi properties. These other properties will be responsible for a fair-share cost of this construction when they develop.
