(a)at least one acre or 20 percent of the total open space, whichever is more, is provided in common areas meeting the requirements of Section 78-52 (Common Open Space) and not used for off-street parking;
(b)the large-scale residential development qualifies for a bonus in accordance with the provisions of Section 78-32; and
(c)the Commission makes the findings required in Section 78-32 and in paragraph (e) of Section 78-313 (Findings).
