Rhode Islanders just love to criticize, and so do I. But this open space is a great idea for quality of life. It seems like the original contributor is saying that selling it to houses can be built would be good for Warwick. Each $600k house would pay only enough taxes each year to educate ONE child. The other two would be paid for by the rest of us. Residences are never a good deal for the tax base when you add in the children. Not to mention other services the city would be obligated to provide. Then there is traffic. As if West Shore Rd is not busy enough at rush hour! RI is the second most densely populated state, and most of that is the northeast corner which we are in. Open space is a good idea. I agree there will be some undesireables, litterers etc, but they will be in the minority of all the users of this great shorefront space, and our accredited police department should help keep them 'discouraged' from causing too much trouble.
