Here is an interesting letter to the editor from a concerned citizen which was published in the Sakonnet Times and the East Bay edition of the Providence Journal recently...

Some items of interest: I will be holding a small business roundtable in Portsmouth. The date was originally going to be April 20th at 7:00 PM, but I am told there is a conflict with a Rotary Club dinner in Portsmouth on the same day, so I am going to see if I can move the event to the 21st.

The location is currently the Sakonnet Fish Co. The State Fire Marshal has agreed to do a presentation about the impact on business of the new state firecodes.

Also, I will be speaking at a fundraiser for the Portsmouth Town Republican committee at the Lil Bear at 7:00 PM (dinner is 5 to 7) on April 30th. Steve Laffey is the headliner for that event.

I will give a short talk at the Little Compton Republican committee meeting on Monday evening, and on Wednesday I plan to be at the LC town council meeting, to see Mr. Enos’ presentation. Could be interesting.

Like the temperatures outside, things are beginning to heat up. Any help with any or all of the above would be greatly appreciated.
