HELP WANTED
ATTENTION ALL INTERESTED QUONNIE BLOCK WORKERS

QCBFD is now accepting applications from those looking to “work the block” officially known as GATE MONITORS. Gate Monitors will be treated as employees for the district. The employee status will provide extra protection for our workers as they will be covered by both worker’s compensation insurance as well as ensure coverage under QCBFD’s liability insurance policies.

In accordance with Rhode Island labor laws, applicants must be 14 years of age to be eligible for the position.  Applicants will need to provide official documentation to verify proof of age (birth certificate, passport, etc).  All applicants ages 14-15 must complete additional paperwork to be in compliance with state laws. Those ages 16 will no longer be required to obtain RI work permits. Those who worked the block last year and submitted all required paperwork will only need to submit the application.

Rate increase for 2025.  Employees will be paid $16.00 / Hr. for weekday work and $17.00 / Hr. for weekends, before taxes.

All applicants must complete an application. Applications can be obtained from the following options:
1. Scan the QR code located below and complete the application.
2. Application is also available from this link: https://forms.gle/dbc7225PKtcaHeLbA 
3. Or you may email policeliaison@quonniecentral.org
When you have completed the on-line application, click the SUBMIT button located at the bottom of the application page. You will immediately receive an acknowledgement email with a copy of your completed application.

Once selected for hire, we will send you additional forms that you need to complete. A set of instructions and procedures will be included.


Any questions can be directed to Ron Ruel at policeliaison@quonniecentral.org
Thank you for your interest in working as Gate Monitor for Central Beach.

Message from the Long Range Planning Committee

 Last summer the Long Range Planning Committee started a project to develop a Comprehensive Plan for our community. Many of you attended the “visioning” sessions we held and shared your comments and ideas. Since then, a sub-group of the Committee has been meeting weekly, conducting informational interviews with subject matter experts, community leaders, longtime residents, younger residents, and newcomers.
