Recap: Middletown Board Backs Affordable Housing Mandate, Forms Apartment Zoning Group

If the Town Council adopts it, housing projects of 10 or more units in Middletown would have to make at least 20% of them affordable, with developers allowed 1.25 extra market-rate units per affordable unit. Separately, a new subcommittee will study possible changes to where and how multifamily housing can be built, which staff said will require impact analysis and public input first.

Aggressive Dog Laws in Rhode Island: Vicious Dog Hearings, Owner Duties, and Liability

Explore amazing animal stories – visit Animal of Things Now and follow us! Aggressive dog laws in Rhode Island work differently than in many other states. Instead of a ladder of “potentially dangerous” and “dangerous” labels, the state has one formal label, “vicious,” and a hearing process that decides whether a dog earns it.

November is Native American History Month, dedicated to honoring the histories, cultures, languages and contributions of Indigenous people across the United States. At the University of Rhode Island, November is important for recognizing Indigenous cultures, but it would be nice for all cultures to be recognized throughout the year, according to Christian Gonzales, associate professor of history and the director of undergraduate studies.

Lindemann ’29: Crisis pregnancy centers are a threat Rhode Island can’t ignore

The Ocean State helped buoy the blue wave that swept the nation on Nov. 3. The Democratic nominee for governor, Helena Foulkes, won her race by over 100,000 votes. The Democrats running for the Senate, the House and Attorney General also won their races. None of these victories are surprising — we live in one of the bluest states in the country. Especially when it comes to pro-choice legislation, Rhode Island is extremely liberal. In 2019, the state codified the protections of Roe v. Wade into state law, and in 2024, we established legal protections for clinicians and prohibited legal action targeting legally provided health care.

A closer look at Menhaden quota cut - enough, or too much? | Exclusive

The Atlantic Menhaden Management Board voted to cut the menhaden quota, but depending on who you talk to, the board either didn't go far enough, or went too far. The current coastwide total allowable catch is 186,840 metric tons. The board approved cutting it to 170,000 metric tons for 2027 and 155,000 metric tons for 2028. The next time the board will revisit the quota is in three years. In another regulatory move, the board voted to set the annual proportion of the Chesapeake Bay reduction fishing cap to the coastwide total available catch at 21.8%, which equates to 37,123 metric tons in 2027 and 33,847 metric tons in 2028. The decisions came Tuesday and Wednesday during the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission’s annual meeting, held this year in Newport, Rhode Island. They followed months of public debate that saw thousands of public comments; over 48,000 written comments were submitted on the bay cap alone. Several issues stoked public concern, principally, widespread osprey nest failures have the predatory bird population in a tailspin and an overfished striped bass stock, that, according to the ASMFC, has seen 7 years of low recruitment in the Chesapeake Bay. As both the opsrey and

How NOSOLO and Newport Mental Health found a common thread

John Toracinta appreciates how a hat can tell a story; recalling a favorite place or sparking a conversation with a stranger. When he and NOSOLO co-founder Sarah Toracinta began imagining a business of their own, they saw an opportunity: using hats – and a brand – to make mental health easier to talk about. John brought a background in product development and marketing, but both founders wanted to build something that reflected their values, with a focus on giving back. Sarah explained her requirement: “If we’re going to start a brand, it has to be something that’s meaningful to both of us. I want to feel authentic selling it.” They chose mental health because of its universality, a realization that came into focus during their honeymoon. “We were traveling around Croatia meeting people and realizing, OK, we're halfway around the world, all venting and laughing about the same things. It doesn't matter where you come from. It doesn't matter how old you are .... we were bonding over the fact that we're all just human.” That shared experience became the foundation for NOSOLO, a clothing brand built around a simple but powerful idea: no one has to navigate life's challenges

In 2008, Bruce Mastracchio established the East Greenwich High School Wall of Honor to celebrate alumni who have distinguished themselves through leadership, achievement, service, and character—preserving our history to inspire future generations. He purposely did not create a wall of fame, although there are some famous people on the wall. Rather, he was looking to highlight those with individuals who do honor in their little (or big) part of the world.

Nick Bosse headlines Swamp Yankee Fest at the United Theatre

It’s no secret that over the past quarter century or so, country music and its numerous variants have had a substantial presence in New England. Some of the most popular radio stations in the region play music affiliated with the genre on a regular basis, and a bunch of local bands and musicians consider a few country acts to be a major influence. At the same time, a bunch of those musical exhibitors who call the area home have a certain grit to them. A prime example is the singer-songwriter Nick Bosse, who is based out of North Stonington, Connecticut. He and his backing band Northern Roots are going to top the bill as part of Swamp Yankee Fest happening at The United Theatre on 5 Canal Street in Westerly on November 21st, with performances beginning at 8 p.m.
