ICYMI: Town Of Huntington Sues Woodbine Marina Dock Contractors

NORTHPORT, NY — The Town of Huntington filed a lawsuit in the state Supreme Court on Jan. 15 against two companies contracted to reconstruct Woodbine Marina in Northport, citing negligence and breach of contract. The Marina is now not operational after several years of damage and attempts to address structural issues by both the town and the lawsuit defendants, L.K. McLean Associates, P.C. and Bellingham Marine.

"Nine years ago, the Town relied on the defendants' expertise and representations to the detriment of our taxpayers and, disappointingly, this process repeated itself four years ago after the first two rounds of costly damage occurred. While we can't change the past, we are fighting to recover the taxpayer's investment in this project while we consider options for the future use of the Woodbine Marina site," said Supervisor Chad A. Lupinacci.
