AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Retirement reality check: A new state-by-state analysis says there’s no single “magic number” for retiring comfortably—Hawaii tops the list at about $156,610 a year after Social Security, while costs elsewhere can be far lower, meaning where you live can make or break retirement plans. Public health reminder: RIDOH is urging Rhode Islanders to stay rabies-ready as summer ramps up—vaccinate pets, avoid wildlife, and take bat encounters seriously. Shellfish spotlight: DEM and the Rhode Island Seafood Marketing Collaborative kick off the 10th annual Quahog Week May 17–23, pushing local quahogs and the water protections that keep them safe. Coastal conflict: Rhode Island AG Peter Neronha sued Quidnessett Country Club over an unauthorized seawall, arguing it violated state coastal rules and harmed protected tidal resources. Industry restart: Aspen Aerogels has begun a staged restart at its East Providence facility after safety reviews following an April incident. Ocean watch: Scientists warn warming waters may bring more shark sightings along the East Coast this summer.
