In response to the spokesperson demanding the ending of the Red House lease, please pause and wonder about this point of view.

Editors, Vineyard Gazette;

In 2014, our committee was appointed by the West Tisbury select board to meet voter directives.

There are four very good reasons why we should all vote yes to phase out gas powered leaf blowers, a regulation that will be on the docket this spring at our town meetings.

The recent decision by the Federal Veterans Administration not to renew the Veterans Readjustment Counseling Contract with the Martha’s Vineyard Community Services (MVCS) will, in my opinion, have serious implications for Island veterans and their families.

I would remind those who are opposed to the phasing out of gas-powered leaf blowers of an important fact: the amount of fossil fuels on earth is finite.
