Opponents Call For Referendum On PawSox Stadium

(Smithfield, RI)  --  They may not be in the majority, but opponents of public financing of a new PawSox stadium in Pawtucket are asking for a referendum on the issue.  However, there were more in favor of moving forward with a financing plan at last night's Senate Finance Committee meeting at Bryant University in Smithfield.  The proposed legislation says the Pawtucket Redevelopment Agency would raise seventy-one million dollars through a bond sale to be paid off over 30 years.  The committee meets again Tuesday at the State House.
