Brian Braginton-Smith DBA Community Wind Power, LLC Deposit paid for residential wind turbine but was never installed. West Yarmouth, Massachusetts

In April 2008, we paid Brian Braginton-Smith of Community Wind Power, LLC a deposit of $2,000 to install a Swift Wind Turbine in Truro, MA. 

Due to the newness of the technology and other regulatory factors, there were delays and we patiently waited.  In October, 2009, we were told by Brian Braginton-Smith that the wind turbine be installed by December, 2009.

Since March 2010, we have repeatedly asked Brian for a meeting to discuss the situation and an accounting of how the deposit has been spent for indirect/direct expenses.  We were asking for an accounting so that he could take what was fair and due to him from the deposit and return the balance to us.

He has never replied to any of our phone calls, e-mails or certified-registered letters.  The Cascade-Swift company, the manufacturer of the wind turbine, has not been able to get in touch with him either because the address he gave is not valid.  It appears he has dissolved his company and that it was never registered with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, to do business in Massachusetts.
