That's what the article is trying, but is not very directly getting across very clearly. Essentially, funding for soil remediation
may be available as an incentive for a private developer. An upcoming report will discuss options further.
However the article is something of scrambled eggs. For example the misquote of the mayor:
“What we’re going to have an opportunity to do here is to take a stranded asset that is just a parking lot and turn it into [public] parking that Londoners need..."
Which of course makes no sense. Should have read:
“What we’re going to have an opportunity to do here is to take a stranded asset that is just a parking lot and turn it into [public]
housing that Londoners need..."
A neighbour is then interviewed, but really has nothing to add other than no one has ever informed her whether or not the plume of coal tar next door has migrated to her property, and she doesn't like the idea of a high rise being constructed next door.
News media material like this is the result one gets when local media is bought up by national concerns and then gutted. No QC.
