Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Progress has been made in the court case involving N.B. Kenney Company, Inc.
and the 10 Hanover taxpayers vs. the Town of Hanover and Callahan, Inc.
regarding the construction of the new high school. Below please find a
direct excerpt from Chris Martin, Chair of the School Building Committee:
NB Kenney (the HVAC contractor) has withdrawn from the lawsuit against
Hanover and Callahan. The case is now only brought by the 10 residents.
The Supreme Judicial Court will hear the case the first week of March in the
John Adams Courthouse at One Pemberton Square in Boston.
This links to the 7 judges that will hear the case:

Please pass this information on to residents interested in the process. If
Hanover loses this appeal, the School Building Committee will most likely
stop the work and re-bid the entire job. This will cause a minimum 6 month
delay in the project and cost the town of Hanover substantially more.
On another note, Callahan is finishing the foundation work next week,
plumbing for the building is underway and the first steel will go up in the
beginning of February. The project is currently running on time for a
September, 2011 opening. This would allow the current 10 grade class to
graduate from the new building. Project photos can be seen at

webcam shortly that will be linked to this site where you will be able check
out progress from the comfort of your own computer.
Thanks,
Chris
