The Property slopes downward generally from a high point at the southwest to a large wetland complex to the northeast and east. A smaller wetland to the northwest also impacts development of the site. The portion of the Property encompassed by the wetland to the east is within the Shoreland Overlay District, while the uplands are outside that District. The area being developed is for the most part open field, with areas abutting the wetlands being wooded. Outlot A, which is an 8-acre portion of the property not proposed for development at this time, is mostly wooded. Page 2 of 11
