I honestly believe that there is some news coming soon, but just might've been off on the date. Considering the last MEC Newsblast where they mentioned new bases in the works.

"Let’s look at how far we’ve come since then:
Over the past 24 months, we have seen a massive paradigm shift in our favor.
What was an 8-year upgrade is now under 2-years from hire to award,
We are accepting delivery of our 44th E175 by the end of the year,
We have re-opened LGA, and are working towards affording the pilots even more domiciles in the near future,
We have re-gained profit sharing,
We are hiring ~60 a month,
Returning E140s to service,
Starting new hire First Officers on 3rd year pay,
All “tenured” FOs get a $10,000 yearly retention bonus – and $2500 upon upgrade,
ExpressJet E145s have begun their return."
