Rhode Island S3298 establishes procedures for the removal or relocation of encampments on public property.
Rhode Island S3298 amends the Homeless Bill of Rights to mandate specific procedures before removing or relocating encampments on public property. The bill requires the removing agency to provide at least 20 days' written notice to the occupants, detailing the timeframe to vacate. Exceptions to this notice period include encampments located within a state or federal right of way with an immediate public safety need, those in or adjacent to active construction sites, or those interfering with scheduled public infrastructure repairs.
