I manage a couple of units downcity (one on Washington, one on Westminster) that you might be interested in. If you DM me we can exchange info and I can send you links/pics/walkthroughs

Lol, no it’s not factually correct. Honestly commentary like what you are contributing betrays a complete ignorance of firearm construction and function.

I won’t berate you like the others, but this sort of know nothing commentary leaves pro gun-control legislators and proponents mouths all of the time, which only serves to make the folks who understand the subject matter uncomfortable about accepting the proposals, as it makes it clear the gun control people have absolutely no idea how the thing they are regulating even works.

It’s very important that we have thoughtful and nuanced regulation around the matter so that we can protect important constitutional rights while mitigating tragedies and violence involving deadly weaponry.

It’s completely legal to make an increase to the base rent amount for pets.

You can’t demand a refundable holding deposit above and beyond the one months periodic rent, which is why ‘pet deposits’ are illegal. There is only one exception to this one months periodic rent rule, and that is for furnished apartments that meet certain criteria.

Any housing is better than no housing. Even luxury or mid-market builds will add to the existing housing supply. Increasing the number of available units is ultimately the only true remedy for a very real housing crisis. The issue deserves stating plainly: We do not have enough houses.

Any increase in supply is going to be meaningful here.

Larger developments will still produce “affordable” units at rates required by the municipality they are developing in.

I am mostly talking about folks who clearly have space for a duplex on their single family lot, or could add a floor and gain a unit or two.

Relax zoning standards and watch all of the housing pop up… Government programs are great and all, but they are hardly addressing the massive housing shortfall that we have here. RI municipalities need to allow more building density by right. Let property owners obtain their own financing to create these new units- The banks will gladly finance these new units privately if the local zoning permitted such development. Local landowners would see increases in property values and/or immediate utility because they will be able to generate income off of the additional units and/or provide space for their own friends and family.

Let people who already own property in the city build housing at their expense. All this program will end up doing is shuffling properties to narrow pools of private developers anyways.
