The new Third Edition will let you easily answer every zoning question that can arise in your Rhode Island practice, with clear, plain-English explanations backed up by thousands of detailed citations.

The Third Edition has been comprehensively updated and includes expert analysis of many new cutting-edge topics, including attorney fee awards under the Anti-SLAPP law and the Equal Access to Justice Act; protection under Noerr-Pennington for developers who face zoning objections raised merely to delay projects; new laws requiring e-mail notice whenever a zoning ordinance is adopted or amended; a Supreme Court case striking down all content-based sign restrictions (even a temporary church directional sign!); required zoning provisions for affordable housing and persons with disabilities; new rules for religious uses, cell towers, zoning certificates, public utilities; and much more!
