The Martha’s Vineyard Land Bank reported revenues of $115,760 for the business week ending on Friday, July 7, 2023. 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 West Tisbury, where two transactions resulted in $65,500. One transaction earned $26,260 in Edgartown. And one transaction resulted in $24,000 in Tisbury.

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 3,900 acres of Vineyard land.
