The ancillary use is located within an international headquarters campus that is solely owned by either a single entity or related entities at the time that development of the international headquarters campus commences and, on completion, the international headquarters on the international headquarters campus will employ more than one thousand full-time employees at an average annual compensation of more than one hundred twenty-five percent of the median wage of the county where the international headquarters campus is located. 2. The international headquarters campus that contains the ancillary use is bound by a recorded instrument that is enforceable by the municipality and that does both of the following:

(a)Restricts occupancy in at least thirty percent of the multifamily residential housing units located on the international headquarters campus, which may include units designated pursuant to subsection I of this section at the discretion of the developer, to individuals who are employed at the international headquarters, or who are police officers, firefighters, teachers, veterans or health care workers and who work within five miles of the international headquarters campus or who are the families of individuals employed at the international headquarters. The recorded instrument must also provide that the municipality where the international headquarters campus is located, in the municipality's sole and absolute discretion, may waive the occupancy requirement.
