Emails from a property boss to the former chief executive of Liverpool City Council have been released.
The emails reveal messages between Jonathan Falkingham, founder of regeneration firm Urban Splash, and Tony Reeves. Mr Reeves stepped down from his chief executive role last month.
Earlier this year Liverpool County Court an employment tribunal heard how Mr Falkingham raised concerns about the way the council dealt with the transfer of land owned by Urban Splash in relation to the New Chinatown scheme. The ambitious scheme was not built which led to a row involving investors, developers and the council.
