Peekskill Mayor Mary Foster Delayed Release of an Environmental Report Detailing a $4.3 Million Cost to Taxpayers on Land She Never Should Have Purchased in the First Place
Tony Washington says: "This Land is Going to Cost More to Clean Up that We Paid For It"
Foster Purchased Other Lots of Contaminated Land, Only One of Which Will Cost $4.3 Million to Clean Up
Before Foster Bought These Parcels, She Knew Property had been Closed by DEC After 4,500 Environmental Violations in 3 Years
At Height of the Recession and a Slumping Real Estate Market, Foster said Taxpayers Should Overpay for Land Without Getting 2 Independent Appraisals Contrary to City Policy
