Mopeds, wetland protections and updated town personnel bylaws are officially on the agenda for Oak Bluffs special town meeting on Nov. 4.

The Oak Bluffs select board voted unanimously Tuesday to approve the warrant for the meeting, which contains 14 articles.

The proposed new moped bylaw would limit rental mopeds to only one rider and require that renters be at least 18 with a valid driver’s license or permit. It would also significantly reduce the maximum number of renter licenses and moped registration decals the select board can issue each year, and include a definition of “moped.” The proposed bylaw does not regulate e-bikes, town administrator Deborah Potter clarified in a previous meeting.

Another article, if passed, would update the town’s bylaw protecting wetlands. The most significant change would be the addition of “ecological climate resilience criteria as defined by the Department of Environmental Protection” to the list of interests protected by the bylaw.

Most of the articles on the warrant are part of an effort to update the town’s general bylaws. The first several articles seek to update and amend municipal personnel bylaws regulating, for example, appointment procedure. Also included are updated bylaws designed to standardize and consolidate documentation of existing committees’ current functions, including the finance and advisory board and the capital program committee (CPC). If the latter article passes, the CPC will be renamed the capital improvement committee.

Another article would incorporate the town administrator’s role in the Oak Bluffs bylaws ahead of Ms. Potter’s planned departure from the town’s top position in 2026. It would also codify the assistant town administrator’s ability to act as the town administrator during unscheduled absences or during longer vacancies with approval of the select board.

The town aims to have the approved version agenda online for the public on Friday, subject to final comments from the select board, said select board executive assistant Debra Alley.

The board voted to strike several big ticket items from the warrant that were under consideration, including a new bylaw aiming to address dilapidated buildings in town and a new set of restrictions on events at residential properties. Members of the board expressed the need more time to work on these articles.

Special town meeting takes place on Nov. 4.
