Fisherman's rights to the shore in the RI constitution go back to the King Charles Charter of 1661 and there's no question about it's stand on the issue.
If I had to guess I'd say CRMC was told to lay off given the location and the neighborhood and threats of litigation - somebody's gotta pay for the lawyers unless you get one to do it pro bono - for free - and the State doesn't have the money to pay for 'em right now.
Is Bob Moeller still chairman of that RISAA access committee? |
I might be wrong but I think CRMS thinks that their job - ie the access, is not in doubt but it's the town's call on access to the acces - cheap, but I think that is why they are laughing their tail off sitting on sidelines
