Beacon Redevelopment Industrial Corporation (BCND)

[nupapa]

A question nobody asked:

Blackburn told the supervisors Monday he hadn't started the application process with state and federal governments for the permits he needs to begin the work. The site is known to contain asbestos and the soil may contain heavy metals such as arsenic that would have to be removed.

Blackburn said the project's success hinges on the supervisors' giving him more time to obtain the permits.

Q: Why haven't you applied for permits yet?

Either Dick Gazarik missed that one, or he didn't include it in his reporting. That's a key point that wasn't addressed and it would have answered many of their concerns.

Potential Answers:
1. We plan to on X date.
2. We don't have the money and it costs X.
3. Beacon is responsible for it.
4. We don't think it's needed.
5. We're waiting on a formal survey of the property to be completed, by X.
