Planning Board - Jul 21, 2026
Fishers and surfers are pressing to keep the Stanton Avenue right-of-way publicly usable; the committee is sorting out who actually controls it.
Coastal Access Improvement Committee - Jan 21, 2026
Residents fear losing a heavily used shore pathway at Plat/Lot 167 because the owning association is inactive and the neighboring vacant lot was recently purchased. The town has declined to take the property by eminent domain, so residents are exploring a CRMC right-of-way designation instead.
Conservation Commission/Tree Board - Jan 6, 2026
A bike path extension, Narragansett Tribe beach passes, and parking permits for licensed fishermen are headed to the Town Council.
