The city needs to pay up and shut up.
And maybe its time the oil companies identify communities which are hostile to their products. They want ‘big oil’ out of their lives permanently so give them their wish and pull their gas stations out of those communities.
You folks spout your hate for hate for oil and carbon even though those products are most responsible for the high standard of living in western economies.
Put your green money where your big hypocritical mouths are and then deal with the consequences.

These towns were dumps in years past from over industrialization.

Hmm, I guess in a democracy folks can decide if they want dangerous polluting things going on in their town.

The city has $6 million set aside to meet this obligation. The balance, Kosmont said, would cost $825,000 to finance over 30 years.

Wrong Answer, send a Special Assessment to Property owners to REPAY the money Immediately. See how they like it then.

“But oil is so yucky!”

…which approxiamates the scientific level of the contra-oil argument.
