The Martha’s Vineyard Land Bank reported revenues of $255,825 for the business week ending on Friday, Sept. 6, 2013. The land bank receives its funds from a two per cent fee charged on many Vineyard real estate transactions.

Much of the land bank revenue last week came from the town of Edgartown, where seven transactions resulted in $221,275. In Tisbury, four eligible transactions yielded $86,980. Four transactions in Tisbury generated $25,300, while two in West Tisbury resulted in $9,250. No eligible transactions were recorded in Aquinnah, Chilmark or Oak Bluffs.

The land bank uses its revenues to purchase and manage land for purposes of conservation, preservation and passive recreation. To date the agency has participated in the purchase of more than 3,018 acres of Vineyard land.
