I dunno, I thought this proposal was meant to deal with noise and quality of life issues, and not about affordable housing. I guess I should read the article. It will never pass.

It might pass, Narragansett and Smithfield have enacted similar ordinances already.

There’s 13 colleges in RI, the furthest away you can get from a college is like 20 mins.

I don’t think there are any schools in those towns, so no one to fight it effectively.

No way Brown would allow this to happen.

That’s why those ordinances exist, people move to a college town and then get mad it’s a college town for some reason. But it’s true Brown has a lot of pull. I’m just saying, it very well pass.
