Little Compton

Political platform statement

Why I am running for this office: After over twenty years running a gardening business, I am passionate about protecting Little Compton’s fragile clay soil. I have seen both the positive and negative consequences which result from the different uses of town land, and I am running to ensure that every effort is made to preserve our unique landscape. I currently serve on the Little Compton Tree Committee and on the Oasis committee, which maintains an all-native garden in the courtyard of Wilbur-McMahon School. As Town Council Member, I will be committed to protecting the farms and fields of Little Compton.

Jim McGaw

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
