The cost of land remediation. Cleaning those lands would take a few years while building in the Glanbrooke Park can start in 8-10 mos. Do you want to tell your shareholders that you are delaying investments so you can locate on a remediated brownfield? Do you have any idea what kind of cost this delay would have for a company in a competitive industry?

This is why I'm complaining about the City's bad track-record on this (and the various higher levels for failing to provide them with the tools to help). Remediation should not be the buyer's problem, nor the taxpayer's problem... but because the government sits on their hands on these issues, the businesses that destroy the land walk away from the problems.
