Let's hope it does some good. Most property owners aren't that bad, but some are militant about keeping people off "their beach". There ought to be quite the outcry from some of the rich property owners along the beaches here. I also hope it improves access to the beaches. Getting out to the jetty a Quonny is like a stealthy military excercise at times.

RI Bill for access to shoreline

I'm not one for drawing things up, but, If someone could make up a partition or something, I'll diffinitly be one of the first to sign it..With the amount of people in this organization, maybe we can make a difference...

10 feet above the high water mark is an aggressive move. It would be incredible though.

DZ, who do we need to write or email in support of this?

it wll be nice to see, but there will undoubtedly be people that object to people walking on their property, which it may be. the law is supposed to (as far as my understanding) allow walking thru their property and not stopping to sit on the beach or fish. the 10' would be above the current high water line, be it high tide or low tide and is not to be confused w/ the often challenge ri law on mean high water mark. i thought this was due to go into the next assembly discussion, but i could be wrong.

At this point identifying any opposing legislators and applying some pressure to them to change their position would be very worthwhile.

I am told that if one of our elected servants gets SIX calls on an issue, they consider that issue very critical....

RI Residents call your State Rep and Senator.... DO IT NOW!!!! http://www.rilin.state.ri.us/Scripts/email/LegEmail.asp

Imagine that SIX calls consitiutes a crisis no wonder these guys and gals get away with what they do WE their BOSSES aren't watching them....
