Dear Subscriber:
Thank you for choosing to keep your copy of A Practical Guide to Land Use Law in Rhode Island up to date with this 2022 supplement to the 2017 first edition. The following are highlights of just some of the updates you will find in this supplement:
- an updated explanation of the legal effect of the 2009 tolling statute's initial enactment and subsequent amendments and the cessation of tolling in 2017, along with a discussion of current litigation regarding the statute's application (see chapter 5);
- analysis of the U.S. Supreme Court's 2019 decision in Knick v. Township of Scott, where the Court overruled Rhode Island's requirement that a takings claim is not ripe for judicial review unless the claimant seeks compensation through the state's procedures for doing so (see chapter 8);
- an expanded review of basic First Amendment principles and how the courts have applied them to the regulation of signage and adult uses (see chapter 9); and
- new materials on Rhode Island's brownfields solar photovoltaic program, for which the Rhode Island Commerce Corporation and the Rhode Island Office of Energy Resources began a new round of funding in 2020 (see chapter 10).
We at MCLE │ New England hope that you find this updated land use publication useful in your practice and in keeping your resource library current.
Very truly yours,
Alexis J. LeBlanc, Esq., MCLE Publications Attorney
