SLOW PROGRESS

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

I wanted to thank Sara Brown and the Gazette for updating the public on the shameful progress the Providence VA is making in returning our VA outpatient clinic to the Island after over 12 years of successfully serving the Island veterans.

LOVE BOATS

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

Your Feb. 10 editorial is right in its main point, that the Steamship Authority is essential to the Islands, and any experiments with mainland ports must not jeopardize its economical operation. However, when you say that Vineyarders have always loved their “ferries,” “boats” would be historically more accurate.

The following letters were received by the Martha’s Vineyard Commission commenting on the plan by Vineyard Power to build a solar canopy over the parking lot at Cronig’s Market in Vineyard Haven.

Forward Thinking

Please note I support the Cronig’s Solar Canopy Project. It is in a great location and great for our Island. We should applaud Vineyard Power for their forward-thinking approach.
