This weeks' updates

Three important articles this week appear in various publications.

  • Appearing in this week's Barrington Times print, on page 3 in the Opinions section: It has been an ongoing strategy of those few (in and out of Municipal Government) who support the ill advised $14.5 million Sowams Nursery apartment rental complex to employ strategies of disinformation in an effort to mold public opinion.
  • Read more in this article, and in today's Barrington Times
  • One aspect of the proposed development at Palmer Pointe that has not been widely discussed is the potential for the former agricultural business to have used, and subsequently contaminated soil on the property with, agricultural chemicals, such as insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, etc.
  • Read more in this Patch article.
  • Since last fall, Palmer Pointe, a proposed affordable rental housing development off Sowams Road, has stirred opposition that has led to a more sweeping attack on affordable housing in this affluent town.
  • Read more in this Providence Journal article.
