Who owned the land that was purchased or acquired for the project? Which campaigns do they donate to? Are the areas of concern toxic waste dumps, old gas stations, or contain old pipelines that would be expensive to remediate?

Yes, these are the questions to ask, related [0].

In the article they mention the number of parcels needed grew by 500, did owners subdivide in order to increase returns?
