Simon Malls Lied, SPG DID Make Decision
The Boycott Simon Malls team was provided with a series of emails between the Free Market Warrior and Simon Malls. Notice in the emails, the lease is initiated and terminated by Ms. Tracey Hatley, the regional director out of Atlanta. Contrary to what Simon Malls is implying, the decision was made by a regional director in Atlanta in consultation with “senior management.” The Simon Property Group press release says “the original decision not to renew Mr. Spivak’s lease was made by the local mall team,” but doesn’t discount that corporate was consulted. Ms. Hatley either made the decision was relaying it down from the Simon management group, or is lying in the email.
