While it's great that this 8/31 meeting should finally get some level of clean-up moving at this gigantic polluted site this fall (and maybe an equally gigantic redevelopment opportunity for someone), one has to wonder why the Shoreham Super Fund area on the other side of this 235-acre site is moving along at a glacial pace, even with all the talk of Mississippi River pollution, the dioxin that was found at Shoreham, and the other carcinogens present in local wells being used by several businesses. The section along Central Avenue is only one of TEN polluted areas at Shoreham that the state is working on. I hope we'll see the state soon conduct "public meetings" on the rest of Shoreham's pollution as well.
And maybe the City of Minneapolis Officialdom will soon start to be less invisible.
