While Miami-Dade County officials and residents mull what to do with the Coconut Grove Playhouse, a levy issued on the property raises questions about the historic theater’s future.

The levy handed down by the county’s police department could put the 3500 Main Highway property at risk of being garnished and sold through an auction, according to the Daily Business Review. It was issued to satisfy a 2013 judgment against the nonprofit that operated the shuttered theater. Miami-based Strategic Properties was owed about $550,000 from the nonprofit.

Members of the Coconut Grove Village Council and Coconut Grove Playhouse Advisory Committee are holding “public brainstorming” sessions about the theater. Miami-Dade got state approval to take control of the venue in January. The county is operating the site with Florida International University for at least 50 years.
