KingCast and Gloucester Times editorial concur: "Robert Taylor's Law would be a fitting legacy for Mr. Taylor."

By Christopher King

For the back story read this KingCast black history post about two white men I admire -- Gloucester fire victim Robert Taylor and Franconia Selectman candidate Jeffery Jesseman. Here's Mr. Jesseman's website.

Here's the Gloucester Times 5 Feb. 2008 editorial in support of the bill first drafted by Crnilovic-Phillips law offices.

But there's also a chance that Taylor's legacy will extend far beyond the Gloucester area, his extended family and his circle of friends ? if local and state lawmakers cooperate, and they should.

Proposed legislation is being pushed by the Lawrence-based law firm of Crnilovic & Phillips, who have also brought the first lawsuit on behalf of a tenant who said she was never notified that her apartment had not undergone proper safety inspections for several years.

But first noted by the paper on 1 Feb. 2008.

"The residents of the Lorraine were apparently never notified of their building's hazards. But they ? and other residents of such buildings around the state ? would have that right if this new proposal were to become law.

Now that would be a fitting legacy for Mr. Taylor."

We have good support for the bill as shall be noted in Due Course.
