Thanks to the Edgartown selectmen for responding quickly when it was brought to their attention that Edgartown residents pay $25 for a yard sale permit while it is no higher than $10 across the Island. This is small town government at work. The selectmen chose to reduce Edgartown yard sale permits to $10. It may seem like a trivial matter but not to those who enjoy recycling their personal items to those that didn’t know they needed them.
