MORNING AFTER

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

There were some disturbingly undemocratic elements at last night’s West Tisbury town meeting. I wasn’t able to clearly articulate them as the hour grew late, so I didn’t speak.

BEACH COMPROMISE

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

In November 2011 at a special town meeting, West Tisbury park and recreation proposed a regulation that would allow dogs access to Lambert’s Cove Beach from Sept. 16 to June 14, not allowing them access from June 15 to Sept. 15. The new regulation passed with much discussion. Petitioners have brought the issue back again, to be decided at this April’s annual town meeting.

Ebb and Flow of Beer and Wine Question:

Reasons to Say Yes

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

I want to express why Ben and I have decided to support the beer and wine proposal coming up for vote on the ballot April 12.

LIBRARY SUPPORT

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

To Edgartown residents and Edgartown board of selectmen.

Comcast continues its public relations dance in both local newspapers. They have continued to misrepresent the facts in the ongoing saga to provide universal cable access on Martha’s Vineyard.

Two years ago Comcast made a presentation to Edgartown for cabling Chappaquiddick. At the time they estimated a $1.8 to 2 million investment to complete the cabling.

This is in response to “Chilmark Considers Using Special Permits to Regulate Size of McMansion Homes.” There must be a secret cabal on Martha’s Vineyard called LAON, an ancient Aramaic word meaning, “Let’s annoy our neighbors.”
