What is the name of your state? Michigan
Currently a piece of property that I own is being condemed by the state and I have been offered a sum of money for the property.The problem is that the property is contaminated. Does the state have any right to make me pay for the clean up? They know it is contaminated due to a clean up effort I made 10 years ago that yielded little result. I wish to settle the issue but I would like them to sign an agreement that they will not make me liable for an future clean up. They will not do this. I then would like to refuse to sell but that is impossible also. What are my rights?
