I do not know but this may be symptomatic of a deeper problem with BAL. When a business is about to go under there is usually a period of increased activity to acheive a cash flow by whatever means. BAL will have lost the rent from Boeing as they move out and that will be a considerable sum.
As this is a rumour website, it would appear Mr Ellis is retiring soon and he is the designer of many of the BAL initiatives to extort monies from the tennants.
Recently there was the debacle of the school to be built at the airport and there have been a series of silliness over the past years with modified "Masterplans" and other such things.
Next we may wait for receivers to be "in discussion"!!!
