The NTA was formed in 2009. The taxi regulator had a historic lease on a building for 35 years with an upward-only rent, which was standard at the time. Did the NTA challenge the lease? Clearly, it did not contain a break clause or the NTA would have gone for it, I assume. Did the NTA challenge the lease legally or seek to buy it out or make a settlement with the person who owned the building?
