The lawsuit filed by Ted Scallet and his wife Roberta over an accessory dwelling unit in Edgartown could be the first challenge under the state's major housing legislation passed last year.
A disagreement over whether to allow new accessory dwelling units to be used for weekly rentals bubbled up this week.
The West Tisbury select board asked that the town affordable housing committee delay plans to bring a proposed affordable dwelling unit (ADU) funding program before voters.
West Tisbury’s affordable housing committee is redoubling its efforts to fund private affordable housing projects in town after a pilot program was voted down at special town meeting.
