I don't know why the period is missing after the DATE and after the URLDATE in the bibliography entry in this MWE. Any guidance and or solution is much appreciated!

In

\renewbibmacro*{doi+eprint+url}{%
  \iftoggle{bbx:doi}
    {\printfield{doi}}
    {}%
  \newunit\newblock
  \iftoggle{bbx:eprint}
    {\usebibmacro{eprint}}
    {}%
  \setunit{\addspace}\newblock
  \iftoggle{bbx:url}
    {\usebibmacro{url+urldate}}
    {}}

the \setunit{\addspace}\newblock before the URL block forces a single space to appear before the URL. To get back a normal unit separator (period in your case), use \newunit\newblock instead.

\renewbibmacro*{doi+eprint+url}{%
  \iftoggle{bbx:doi}
    {\printfield{doi}}
    {}%
  \newunit\newblock
  \iftoggle{bbx:eprint}
    {\usebibmacro{eprint}}
    {}%
  \newunit\newblock
  \iftoggle{bbx:url}
    {\usebibmacro{url+urldate}}
    {}}

The space before the "cited x times on ..." block is controlled by \bibpagerefpunct whose default setting is \addspace (because biblatex's default settings have this block in parentheses), you can try

\renewcommand*{\bibpagerefpunct}{\addperiod\space}
