I want to thank everyone of you who has signed the petition in support of wanting a viable development for Galilee.    The RIDEM put out an RFP and the submission deadline was November 15th, 2021.    The RIDEM had the Procaccianti Group still involved issuing the RFPs in conjunction with the RIDEM even though the Town of Narragansett is opposed to Procaccianit's continuation with the lease.   Procaccianti's proposal was to use the leased land in Galilee as primarily a parking area to bring tourists over to Block Island.   To add insult to injury, an open air parking lot is primarily as cash business, so the ability to account for the thousands of dollars in taxable revenue would be difficult.   Mr. Procaccianti is a multi Billionaire, and he put forth a nickel and dime proposal for his gain and Galilee's loss.   Let us not forget, last December Procaccianti Developers purchased a 19 Million Dollar Marina in Block Island, so it is no wonder he wants to retain the lease in Galilee for a massive parking lot to flood people over to Block Island, so potentially tourists can visit his Marina that has a huge hotel, restaurant, and many other amenities.    The Town of Narragansett has been in contact with the RIDEM in the hope they will listen to the desires of our residents and town officials.    Procaccianti Developers were given a short term lease renewal even though they failed to put forth a viable plan for Galilee, and their spokesperson referred to Galilee as noisy and smelly .   It is my hope and the Town of Narragansett's governmental officials that the RIDEM will release Procaccianti from the lease after the short term (6 month extension) expires in the near future.    Please encourage at least one friend or family member to add his or her signature to this petition, as the more signatures presented the more powerful message of support for a viable development plan for Galilee will be evident.    Below is a link to the RIDEM that has the RFP that was posted on their website.  Here is a link to Procaccianti's recently purchased Champlin's Marina:  Champlin's 19 Million Dollar Marina.
