Construction Cost are crazy

In the mid 90's the town of Hermon, where I grew up, (by Bangor) built a new high school, with a 700 student capacity for $12.5 million, today the neighboring town of Hampden is building a new high school for $52 million.....with a estimated capacity of 800 students.....that means cost went up by almost 400% in 15 years

The article makes it sounds like its Free land

Reality is just the site work, and cleaning up the site will cost over $1 Million...he is also paying the cost of the demolition of the Mill from the fire 2 years ago...over $100,000..and the city is restricting uses on the property(so not a new McDonalds on Main st)...

Option B...Leave the site undeveloped and its current form for the next 50+ years....
