When you are turning left at a stop light and someone coming the other way *gasp* has a no right turn on red sign that they can't read, and then they honk at YOU for following the right of way!!

While I make no claim to understand the health risk potential of this situation (I am not a scientist!), there are other major concerns, mainly, your home.
*
"The houses in the Five Points neighborhood now are listed in a database of closed environmental remediation sites, which essentially lets future property owners and construction companies know there might still be some contamination in the area and that they must take caution in drilling wells or handling soil."
*
Your home is the largest investment that you will probably make in your life. Now, your major investment is on a list of "closed remediation sites," which would be something you would be required to disclose to potential future buyers. Even if the case is closed, and even if the buyers are "reassured" that the health risk is minimal, most people would walk right out the door. There would be too many uncertainties, and people with children would not want to risk it. People fear what they don't understand, and I think that is exactly what the residents in this area would face if they tried to sell.
*
So you don't want to live in this home because you aren't 100% certain that there will be no health consequences to you and your family - now or 20 years down the road - but you can't sell it because 99% of potential buyers would run away from such red flags as soil contamination... What do you do??? The Channings (and all the other residents) have every right to be upset about this situation. More power to those who seek legal advice. It's not about monetary gain - it's about being restored to the situation you were in before this occurred. If you have to dump your home for $50,000 less that what it is worth because no one will take it at full value (or your appraisals are significantly dropped because of this situation), why shouldn't you be compensated for that loss - which was caused by no fault of your own?

I have trouble sometimes understanding how people are unable to empathize with others - which seems to be a major problem for people on this site. I think if this had happened to some of the other posters on this board personally, their opinions would be very different.

Good luck, Kathy, and all the other residents!

Thank you for your compassion on this issue, Greg! I'm sure those children (and parents) appreciate your efforts!

SuperDave: all one has to do is look back through your history of posts to see that you are the one that enjoys attacking people on here - that's all 90% of your posts are. There is no "discussing the issue" with a person like you.

On Skatin' Place fix

www.rinktime.com lists area rinks (ice and roller) that are still operational. Off the top of my head - Beloit, Delavan, Burlington, Racine, Rockford, McHenry, etc. all still have rinks. Why do I know this? Because I skate for the Delavan Dolls of Derby team, lol. We love guest skating at other rinks!
