The City of Newberry remains engaged in a legal dispute with Elite-pro-ball Academy over alleged failures to fulfill contractual obligations tied to property taxes and insurance. The City, citing a termination of the 2011 agreement due to defaults, has sought eviction despite the organization’s recent partial tax payment and public appeals at commission meetings by parents and coaches. Mediation has been ordered and legal steps are underway to resolve the facility’s future use amid competing claims. The matter underscores ongoing tensions between municipal oversight and youth baseball operations.
