Via a report in the Phoenix Business Journal, the controversial 'Cubs Tax' on Cactus league tickets has been scrapped. No worries that the team will move to Naples though - according to Crane Kenney they can get the money from other means (mainly upping the rental car tax and some bond measures)

This was all part of a larger press conference/meeting that Kenney had with the media today. Muskat gives the rundown here.

• The Triangle building should be finished by 2014. This seems later than I remember.
• They're doing their superficial improvements to the stadium (bathrooms, etc.) There is $100m budgeted for stadium restoration + improvements
• The Cubs added ~900 more season ticket seats that were previously held by the Trib, 200 of which are bleacher tix. Seriously - the trib had control of 900 tickets? Maybe this was the block that they were 'selling' to their ticket broker shell company
• The Cubs are looking into selling advertising behind the LF bleachers. I'm not sure what this means - signs? Ads on the buildings themselves? I can't remember where, but I read someone mention today that they could maybe put up 'virtual' ads on some of the buildings, kind of the like the green screens behind home plate so the advertising appears on TV.
