Much of the land bank revenue last week came from the town of Edgartown, where two transactions resulted in $178,020. One transaction earned $32,500 in West Tisbury. Two transactions generated $26,730 in Oak Bluffs. One transaction resulted in $17,200 in Chilmark. And one transaction earned $10,900 in Tisbury.

No eligible transactions were recorded in Aquinnah.

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 3,243 acres of Vineyard land.
