Sound like a good idea....
Personally, I think a good idea would be to get some money together, and sue the next person or town that tries to cut off access.
If a ruling came down that the cities and towns really do not have the right to close or restrict access, we would be golden. The ownership of the ROW's should actually be in the hands of the CRMC. The interpretation of the RI Constitution by the cities and towns is not in the spirit of the law. In the 21st Century, restricting parking could easily be interpreted as form of hindrance.
The current strategy of showing up at the various town meetings and fighting each proposed closure on a case-by-case, while not without victories, is a failed strategy when viewed in the aggregate. We are on our way to becoming Connecticut with respect to access.
I'll give money so long as I know we'll get a day in court. How do you feel about going through RISAA? They have a committee in place and I believe a lawyer is on it.
