What this means
The amendment keeps the Menkiti Group’s project moving while addressing the property’s ongoing costs, which average about $15,000 per month. The $7,500 monthly amount would be treated as a nonrefundable deposit and added to the amount due at closing. The Authority also reported a $7.105 million fair-market appraisal for the Left Field Building and continued planning for redevelopment of the former RMV property.
