widening project commenced and that the Parties now desire to amend that
provision so that Norwood and Betty Louis may retain use of their existing driveway
until they no longer reside at the 500 Foster Road residence or until development to
the west reaches a collector street traffic threshold on Foster Road, whichever event
occurs first.
2. The original Conditional Zoning Agreement recorded May 5, 1998 in Book 2478,
Page 289 of the .lohnson County Recorder's Office shall be and is hereby amended
