“In 2017 the Board will be looking to take advantage of the opportunities anticipated from uncertainty caused by the proposed changes to tenant fees, further consolidating our recent acquisitions to extract additional efficiencies and leveraging our large managed property portfolio to further increase shareholder value.”
