This image shows those areas that have been designated by RI law to remain undeveloped unless a permit is authorized by either DEM or CRMC. Before these laws were enacted, 786 acres of this total unbuildable area were developed. It should be a priority of RIEDC to designate the remaining 588 acres as open space in the next proposed plan for development of the site.
