HelpRaynham Hired Legal Counsel

During the appeals process it is imperative to have counsel represent HelpRaynham and the over 800 residents/interveners. Attorney Kevin O’Donnell and John McNabb, from Law Offices of Kevin F. O’Donnell, Cohasset, MA, were hired by HelpRaynham in April. Attorney O’Donnell and Mr. McNabb successfully helped the citizens of Abington in their opposition to a trash transfer station on Route 18.

Raynham’s Board Of Health Voted Against The Trash Transfer Station.

Last Spring, the Board of Health voted 2-1 against National Reclamation’s application for a trash transfer station to be located at 1958 Broadway. National Reclamation filed a complaint in Suffolk Superior Court appealing the Board’s decision.

Carney said he plans to file an appeal to superior court, "I expect their legal fees to be over $1 million," he said. "If they think they can beat me in court, then good luck."

Taunton Gazette:

The Board of Health voted 2-1 to deny the permit. Member RAY PLATT, the dissenting voter, said he favored approving the transfer station to handle 400 tons of trash a day rather than 1,000 tons.

Carney to sue Raynham if it doesn't submit "It's going to cost the town a lot of money," he said, possibly as much as $1 million. "I've been to the town's budget meetings. They don't have the money to fight me," he said.

Thumbs up!

To Raynham Board of Health members John Donahue and Don McKinnon for standing up to the Carney family and voting down their proposal for a trash-transfer station at the dog track on Route 138. Ray Platt, clearly lacked the fortitude of his counterparts and was the lone dissenting vote. read more The Enterprise:
