HAMMOND - A lawsuit brought against the town by local landowners in November has already cost taxpayers $17,000, according to Town Supervisor Ronald W. Bertram.

The Article 78 action was filed by Conboy, McKay, Bachman & Kendall LLP, Watertown, on behalf of Michele and Daniel McQueer, Steven Demick, William Hadlock and Crayton Buck.

The suit claims the recently passed wind energy facilities law is arbitrary, capricious, unconstitutional, discriminatory, unreasonable and violates Article IX of the state constitution.
