New Resident Guide New Resident Guide Warwick Rhode Island 2016 1 2 INTRODUCTION The Guide to Warwick was researched and compiled by the Central Rhode Island Chamber of Commerce. It is intended to assist newcomers to the City of Warwick whether they be individuals, families or businesses. Warwick is a dynamic, growing city. Location, geography, climate, transportation and a strong economic base, all contribute to make the city one of the northeast’s finest areas in which to live, work, and do business. Warwick’s most important resource, however, is its people. In these pages, you will find listings of community and business organizations. The individuals associated with these groups are the lifeblood of the city. They number in the thousands and their efforts have brought the city national recognition. They represent a diverse cross section of the populous: government, business, labor, human services and others. Their input is an integral and invaluable facet of life in Warwick. Warwick has been designated as one of the top 20 safest cities in the United States. The Central Rhode Island Chamber of Commerce would like to thank the following organizations for their contributions that made this guide possible. Department of Human Services, City of Warwick Rhode Island Department of Economic Development Rhode Island Historical Preservation Commission The Warwick Beacon United States Bureau of the Census Division of Vital Statistics, State of Rhode Island 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction . 3 Table of Contents. 4 Facts About Rhode Island. 5 Rhode Island Federal Officials. 7 Rhode Island State Government. 8 Warwick City Government. 9 Warwick City Council & School Committee. .10 Warwick Schools. 11 Colleges & Universities. 13 Recreation. 14 Suggested Rhode Island Beaches. 16 Warwick Marinas. .17 Churches. 18 Banks . 20 . 21 Real Estate / Apartments / Property Management . 22 . 23 Transportation. 24 Auto / Limo / Motor Coach Rental Taxi—Bus—Train—Airport Hotels / Motels / Bed & Breakfasts . 25 Media . 26 Newspaper—Radio—Television Fraternal & Civic Organizations. 27 Utilities & Services. 28 Featured Physicians, Surgeons & Chiropractors. 29 Emergency Phone Numbers & Medical Facilities. 30 4 FACTS ABOUT RHODE ISLAND GOVERNMENT The constitution of the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, adopted in 1842, establishes five general State offices.

There are 20 major departments under the Governor. General elections are held on the first Tuesday in November in even numbered years. Rhode Island sends two Senators and two Representatives to our nation’s Capital. POPULATION Rhode Island is the second most densely populated State in the United States, with an average of 903 persons per square mile of land area. The population of Rhode Island as of 2000 numbered l,048,319 according to the U.S. Bureau of the Census.

Individual apartments, condominiums, suburban estates, and single family, homes are available. Recreation and relaxation are very much a part of the mainstream of life in Rhode Island. The State has 400 miles of shoreline, acres of woodlands and a variety of recreational facilities. Because of Rhode Island’s small size, instate commuting time is remarkably brief. Continued on next page 5 Continued—FACTS ABOUT RHODE ISLAND ECONOMY The Industrial Revolution in America began in Rhode Island in 1793, with the establishment of a water-powered cotton mill on the banks of the Blackstone River in Pawtucket. It has become known as the Old Slater Mill after Samuel Slater, who was the founder of the American Textile Industry. From this distinctive beginning, Rhode Island developed into a modern diversified economy. The job opportunities are as diversified as our culture.

BRADY Providence, RI 02903-4045 Superintendent tel. 401.456.9211 fax 401.456.9252 December 3, 2008 Dear Parents and Guardians: The winter season is here. I want to make sure that you are informed about Providence School’s decision-making process and procedures that we follow in the event of inclement weather. HOW IS THE DECISION MADE TO CLOSE SCHOOL, DELAY OPENING OR RELEASE EARLY? As superintendent of schools, I am responsible for making these decisions, with recommendations from my operations, transportation and facilities staffs. We make these decisions based on a careful analysis of relevant factors, such as: information on road conditions from transportation staff and from the police; amount of snow and ice accumulated, or flooding; temperature and wind factor; weather predictions; parking lot conditions; whether our buildings have electricity and heat; and what other school districts are doing. HOW ARE PARENTS AND FAMILIES NOTIFIED? We will continue to utilize our telephone notification system to let parents know about school closings, delays or early releases. This information will also be posted at www.providenceschools.org and communicated through the following media outlets affiliated with the Rhode Island Broadcasters Association: TELEVISION: FM RADIO: AM RADIO: WLNE (ABC – Channel 6) WPRO FM 92.3 WJZS FM 99.3 WPRO AM 630 WJAR (NBC – Channel 10) WSNE FM 93.3 Latina FM 100.3 (Spanish) WSKO AM 790 WPRI (CBS – Channel 12) WHJY FM 94.1 WWBB FM 101.5 WHJJ AM 920 WSBE (PBS – Channel 36) WBRU FM 95.5 WRNI FM 102.7 WPMZ (Poder) AM 1110 (Spanish) Telemundo 50 (Spanish) WCRI FM 95.9 WEEI FM 103.7 WRIB AM 1220 WNAC (FOX – Channel 64) WCTK FM 98.1 WWLI FM 105.1 WOON AM 1240 WWKX FM 106.3 WRNI AM 1290 WNBH AM 1340 WNRI AM 1380 WADK AM 1540 WARV AM 1590 WHEN IS THE DECISION MADE TO CLOSE SCHOOL?

    January 13, 2014 Richard K. Sullivan, Jr., Secretary Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs 100 Cambridge Street Suite 900 Boston, MA 02114 CC: Members of Coal Plant Revitalization Task Force Re: Planning for Energy and Economic Transition Dear Secretary Sullivan: The Bay State and the Ocean State share far more than a border. Regional economic growth and struggles, workforce challenges, and power decisions affect the health and wellbeing of residents of communities from Rhode Island to Southeastern Massachusetts, Boston and beyond. From natural beauty to marine commerce, our waters provide enormous benefits and opportunities. Our public and private transportation networks send people to work across state lines. We share hubs of innovative technology and academic brilliance, strong university systems and a growing clean technology sector. And now more than ever, we share a need to revitalize old, industrial communities with industries of the future. We write today because we see great urgency and great opportunity as changes in our energy grid force a rethinking of power decisions. We thank the Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs for stewarding a deep examination of coal plant transition, its impacts and the policies needed to support the growth of thriving communities. As representatives of neighboring districts, we have grave concerns about the continued burning of coal for power, and see great promise in planning for a healthier and more resilient future. What choices we make today for our power grid and our economies will affect many, for many years. Each policy, transmission line, pipeline or redeveloped plant is part of a large and shifting infrastructure, revisions to a 1950s and 1960s energy grid.

  • Motiftv June 19 – 26 95.5 WBRU Summer Concert Series: Torn Shorts
    MotifTV June 19 – 26 95.5 WBRU Summer Concert Series: Torn Shorts By Jeffrey Folker June nights: not too hot for a stroll in the park, not too cold for an Awful Awful from Newport Creamery. Growing up in New Jersey, three miles from the Atlantic Ocean, summer has always been the time of year to relax, hit the beach for a tan, and grab an ice cold beer at the local establishment. Now living in Providence, summer has a new meaning: 95.5 WBRU’s Free Summer Concert Series. In the heart of downtown Providence, catchy beach-y, blues-inspired, indie rock (that’s a mouthful) tones filled the scenic Waterplace Park on June 14th, as over 1,000 spectators sat, laid, or danced – enthralled by the musical talents of local band Torn Shorts and a night of good, clean fun. Lead by front man Josh Grabert, Torn Shorts has taken the New England music scene by storm after winning WBRU’s 2013 Rock Hunt. According to Michael Christofaro, (Marketing Coordinator and Photographer for the City of Providence), early June has a reputation among city event planners for rather unpredictable weather– in past years, rainouts have pushed the concert series indoors (to Lupo’s). After a rainy morning on Friday, by mid-afternoon, the weather had cleared enough to keep the concert outside. If nothing else, people-watching entertained many, as venders sold the usual Waterfire wares, kids as young as 1 sat with families, punks, grandparents, and even a handful of dogs, PVD Pudding Pops sold their… well, pudding pops, Dunkin Donuts handed out free samples of their newest coffee line (which was phenomenal!), and kayakers floated lazily down the Providence River, drinking in the sounds of the city.
