The Metro Council will now get to decide on an agreement with The Fallon Company related to the development of 30 acres of the city's East Bank.
Mayor Freddie O’Connell announced Friday that he has filed an ordinance allowing Metro to enter into a development agreement and ground lease with the company. The O’Connell administration picked up contract negotiations with Fallon after the company was chosen as the master developer in the final days of former Mayor John Cooper’s administration.
