Costs are limited to sign installation and traffic map updates; no specific figure was given.
Commercial assessment challenges by Walmart and MMAC
A loss in this lawsuit could affect how big-box properties are assessed and could chip away at the city's tax base.
Spring Mall redevelopment advances
Grant funding would offset demolition and site-prep costs the city and developer would otherwise bear.
