Breakers center moving forward after ruling

NEWPORT – The Breakers Welcome Center project will move forward after a Newport Superior Court judge last week dismissed all appeals of a Zoning Board decision that approved its construction.

Judge Walter Stone decided that none of the appellants had legal standing to challenge the approvals, according to a news release from The Preservation Society of Newport County.

“This is a tremendous victory for the preservation society and for the hundreds of thousands of visitors to The Breakers each year,” Donald O. Ross, chairman of the board of The Preservation Society, said in a statement. •
