Cluster Battle Is Over, But The War Rages On, Chester Smolski
Cluster Battle Is Over, But The War Rages On, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"The Chinese have a saying: 'Life is a tragedy for those who feel and a comedy for those who think.' For Americans, the same could be said for zoning in the seemingly never-ending war between residents and developers over land development."
High Price Of Housing Has Some Unseen Costs, Chester Smolski
High Price Of Housing Has Some Unseen Costs, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"Affordability is the major problem in the housing industry today, at least in this part of the country. The Northeast, now the most expensive area in the nation in which to build a house, is fine for those who are sitting in their appreciating houses, but the region is at a distinct disadvantage when it comes to attracting a pool of talented people to live and work here."
Middletown Needs A Better Eye To Its Future, Chester Smolski
Middletown Needs A Better Eye To Its Future, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"In the last 25 years this town in the middle of Aquidneck Island has undergone the most dramatic swings of population of any community in the state. Subject to decisions made in Washington, D.C., as to the concentration of Navy personnel, Middletown has had more than its share of ups and downs. Having its own Navy facilities and housing as well as housing personnel based in Newport, Middletown has seen its 1960 population of 12,675 explode to 29,900 in 1970 and then experience the greatest population loss in the 1970s of any of the nine Rhode Island communities that lost …
Shape Of Things To Come, Chester Smolski
Shape Of Things To Come, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"The age-old saying is that the future belongs to the young. However, in terms of new potential markets, the business sector ought to consider changing demographics, in nation and state, because the future for the merchants of goods and services may very well be with the old."
Notable Efforts To Meet Emerging Housing Needs, Chester Smolski
Notable Efforts To Meet Emerging Housing Needs, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"This is a landmark year in the historical development of housing in the nation, ad Rhode Island almost became a part of this bigger picture. One noteworthy event has already taken place, and two special birthdays are observed throughout the year."
Helping Communities Determine Development, Chester Smolski
Helping Communities Determine Development, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"The word uppermost in the minds of many communities these days is 'development,' a process that manifests itself on the land in the form of the built environment. Alarmed at the speed with which land is being used--and often abused--communities are being faced with touch decisions on how to cope with development, either by directing it, managing it or even stopping it."
Some Back-Yard Arguments Are Best Left At Home, Chester Smolski
Some Back-Yard Arguments Are Best Left At Home, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"Governing authorities must contend and work with many special-interest groups in order to plan the growth and development of their communities. Whether these groups are concerned with better schools, garbage pickup, no growth, economic development or the environment, the issues may require action, and often the only way to get the attention of the local council is to band together and confront authorities with the issue."
Return Of The Student Tempo, Chester Smolski
Return Of The Student Tempo, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"It's that time of the year again when summer wanes and fall approaches. In the minds of many, this change to autumn occurs around Labor Day when the kids go back to school, rather than the official, later occurring, Autumnal Equinox. So, another season and the new academic year is upon us."

Teaching Jobs, Housing And Implications Ready For Providence's Lap, Chester Smolski
Teaching Jobs, Housing And Implications Ready For Providence's Lap, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"For the first time in 15 years, Providence has good news for those seeking teaching positions. There will be about 70 new openings in the next year as a result of about 50 impending retirements this year and an expected increase in enrollments of more than 500 next year. The short-term impact of the new teaching positions will be to bring young teachers into the schools and, in the long term, effect a major impact in the community."
Urging Private Sector To Work For Public Good, Chester Smolski
Urging Private Sector To Work For Public Good, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"There are few people who would be unhappy if they owned a capital asset that appreciated by 31.7 percent in one year's time. That is what happened to housing in the PRovidence area in the July-to-September period this year, as compared with the same period last year.
