C. will close in the next year sometime and move to a different county
D. closes sometime in the next year and will move to a different county

This sentence requires the recognition that the word when creates a conditional tense that requires the (e)s form of the verb, and also that both verbs in the following phrase must use parallel form. The complete and correct verb phrase, without supporting words, should read: when the shopping center closes and moves.
A. Though the verbs in this option are parallel, they are not in the e(s) form required by the word when.
B. Closes and moves are the parallel verb forms required by the word when.
C. The verb forms will close and move are not the conditional form required by the word when, and the word sometime is awkwardly placed.
D. Verb forms closes and will move are not in parallel form.
E. Then is unnecessary, and the verb forms will close and move are not in the e(s) form required by the word when.

Can anyone please elaborate on - "when creates a conditional tense that requires the (e)s form of the verb"
As per my understanding the (e)s here is required because shopping center is singular. But usage of "will" in the later phrase is not correct because it demands a conditional tense whereas will gives a definite action.
Please let me know if my understanding is correct.
