The resolution proposes the establishment of a special legislative commission to study and provide recommendations on water supply planning for new housing developments in rural communities in Rhode Island. The commission will consist of eleven members, including representatives from the House of Representatives, the Department of Environmental Management, the Rhode Island League of Cities and Towns, water authority managers, and experts in hydrology and public health.

The commission is mandated to conduct a comprehensive study to evaluate and plan for the impacts of new housing developments on public water supplies and watersheds. It is required to report its findings and recommendations to the House of Representatives by June 15, 2027, and will dissolve on July 1, 2027. The resolution emphasizes the importance of ensuring access to safe drinking water while addressing the housing needs of the community, and it allows for state departments to assist the commission in its work.
