Dental services provider Cobeer Persaud has sued Eccles heavy machinery business, Phoenix Welding and Fabricating Inc over alleged damage and noise caused by heavy vibrations.
The lawsuit is a reflection of a growing trend of industrial-type businesses opening up in various communities and creating friction with neighbours. The matter was filed in October last year and has not yet been fixed for hearing.
In his statement of claim, Persaud is seeking damages in excess of $5m for nuisance by vibration or noise or alternatively for negligence.
