John - I'd be there if I could, Cap, but i'm already committed to a dinner celebrating the victory of a City Councilor my wife and I supported and worked to help re-elect - coincidentally, she's also the one responsible for maintaining and fighting for ROW's here in Newport.
Anyway, hope you get a good turn-out in support.
I told Mrs. Crafty just the other day I'm thinking of re-joining RISAA and volunteering for the Access Committee - she's already on the Board of Directors for Friends of the Waterfront here in Newport - and she's also the person who did the graphics for their waterfront access signs that are being posted all over Newport to denote ROW's - that's my girl!
Ya know, these recent attempts to deny access are starting to twist Uncle Crafty's man-panties in a knot 
Like crime and rust, apparently this c-r-a-p never sleeps  |

Crafty,
I sent this ROW meeting info to Senator Paiva-Weed. We need the state to pressure CRMC to attend this meeting and stand up for the citizens of RI. They should tell the town it can't restrict parking and take them to court if they do. Another call to her from you or Kate Leonard would help. Maybe she'll send one of her staffers to the meeting.

Success, in a vote of for against the ordinance and one abstaining, the Daunis Right of Way parking will remain open.
The meeting tonight was very encouraging and was successful based on the hard work of people to get Barrington residents, many anglers and some non anglers, to voice their concerns on the loss of public access to the right of way.
Good work by all and big kudos to David for keeping the pot stirred on this and the word out!
A sincere thank you to all that wrote, emailed, and especially showed up. |
