It’s in effect now. I think a lot of people are fighting it. But I know for a fact landlords are enforcing it.

Kids also getting around it aswell. Really stupid if you ask me.

So no more renting out houses in Scarborough and Bonnet shores?

Not exactly. A lot of kids are being forced to live with 3 instead of say 4 or 5. The owners have to jack up the rent to break even. It sucks. I know plenty of kids who are just “renting with 3” and having 1 or 2 kids stay there even though they rnt on the lease. It’s hurting the local economy and it shows. Kids will party regardless of how many kids live in a house. Personally, I think it’s a dumb rule and I can see it being turned over.

Jesus that's dumb. Back from 2009-2012 it was 500 per month for 5 people in a house in eastward. I could only imagine what it costs now.

I paid $400 for Bonnet for a couple years (four beds) and had a three bedroom at point Judith for....I think $450? Now I have a client (I'm a realtor) who gets $1000 per bed near PC (utilities included). Times have changed.

It’s a minimum 800 - 1500 per room

Holy sheit. Bye bye 56 Exeter, 6 Alexander ct, and 6 Ashton Ln. Sorry about the ragers and that one house fire. Fuck all the out of state roommates I had that one year.

If you go to gansett their are plenty of college kids living together over 3 heads. It’s not an enforceable ordinance.

I graduated recently from URI. Some landlords absolutely enforce it. Others turn a blind eye like I said in my last comment. People will have 100+ person parties if 3 people live in a house or 5. It doesn’t solve anything other than make college kids lives harder.

Right? I mean if anything it just means the drunk kids have another room to pas out in without worrying about sleeping in someone else's bed. It's not like they walled off every fourth bedroom.

Could people sue the colleges then for the behavior of their member’s or perhaps the colleges could expel the students then ? If this is about the behavior of the students that should involve the parent organization .

Students definitely face repercussions when they live off campus. I have heard of multiple people getting in trouble with the school for disturbances/ breaking laws/ rules of the school. Sue? Not entirely sure.
