Colton sues city on waste transfer station
Assemblymember Bill Colton has filed a lawsuit to block the citys plan to build and operate a waste transfer station at the site of the former Southwest Brooklyn Incinerator, located at Shore Parkway and Bay 41st Street in Bensonhurst.
The lawsuit comes of the heels of a decision by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation to move forward with the citys plan to construct the waste transfer station.
This is the second time Colton has sued the city over this facility. He did so as a pro-bono lawyer in the early 1990s and won.
