Consultant sues developer MVP Realty after dismissal from Mount Vernon project

Ferrandino & Associates is suing MVP Realty, the developer of The Pointe in Mount Vernon, for breach of contract after being fired as consultants on the massive affordable housing project. In court filings, Ferrandino & Associates claims that it was fired only so MVP could save money, a claim that MVP rejects. Ferrandino was hired in 2015 to work on the site’s environmental review, but MVP terminated the contract in September, after the review process had dragged on for more than two years. [WBJ]
