Councilman Targets Pool Rentals | Providence News

Cranston City Councilman Frank Ritz is sounding the alarm on private pool rentals in residential neighborhoods, calling them “out of control” parties that turn quiet streets into chaotic festivals—with dozens of cars, roaring DJs, and crowds of up to 100 people partying past midnight. He’s investigating properties flagged by complaints, seeking to balance homeowners’ right to earn extra income with the need to preserve neighborhood peace, and is exploring whether current ordinances can be applied to treat these rentals like commercial short-term stays. While some homeowners say they’re not renting out their pools at all, Ritz is pushing for a broader review as the city’s public pool finally prepares to open.
