Very Investor friendly
STRs are explicitly allowed in R-10 zones across Prudence Island, with clear steps, low fees ($100 registration + $30 fire inspection), no hard caps, and straightforward occupancy and safety requirements. The town employs a business‑friendly compliance approach, has not enacted the proposed R‑10 ban, and maintains a supportive tone; state law preserves municipal authority while permitting STRs.
