In Rhode Island all towns are not the same.
In Rhode Island we have three different types of governments running in our towns.
Mayor-Council

Town Meeting
|
Council-Manager

The Town Meeting form of local government is the ORIGINAL AMERICAN form of government.
Congratulations to Exeter, Foster, Gloucester, Hopkinton, Little Compton, Richmond, Scituate, Tiverton, and West Greenwich for continuing to be an active part in your local Town Meeting form of government.
