Would $10k make you feel better about having to move?

from The Craig Needles Podcast · host Blackburn Media

As councillors are set to debate a proposed high-rise near the intersection of Ridout and Kent - people who would have to move for the building to be constructed are set to receive a big offer. York Developments has offered the potentially soon to be displaced tenants $10,000 for their move if they get the go ahead to build a 30-storey, 500+ unit tower on the property. London Deputy Mayor Shawn Lewis joined Craig on the podcast to talk about that development - and councillors taking campaign donations from builders in the city. Does that create a conflict of interest? The Craig Needles Podcast is brought to you by Downtown London and the Covent Garden Market.
