If you ask, I bet this is what most of the Grove thought they were going to get, up graded facilities.
This starts on page 25 of the RFP after all of the other BS and pipe dreams. Lots of renovation/ redeveloping requirements not changing the complete face of the Grove, no retail, NO parking Garage !
Anything more than this is just some politicians wish list. I guess they figured they might as well see how much they can get while they were at it.
Out of the RFP page 25 so far back no one will read it.
