The up-Island regional school district may need to amend its budget after voters in West Tisbury rejected the town’s first tax override in 10 years Thursday.

Oak Bluffs voters gave strong backing to regional projects at their annual town meeting this year, including those that aim to boost services for the elderly in the years ahead.

Edgartown voters readily approved nearly all articles, including a $32 million town operating budget at their annual town meeting. But they stopped short of spending $2.1 million to buy the Main street Mini-Park from the Hall family.

West Tisbury opened its town meeting with a tribute to Patrick Gregory. Getting down to business, voters approved a $16.9 million budget, with all but one of the 42 articles passing. Short of a quorum on the second night, the meeting was reconvened for next week.

With vigorous debate over two long evenings, Tisbury voters emerged from special and annual town meetings with a $24.3 million spending plan, authorization for Dukes County to buy a new building for the Center for Living, a new garage for the water works department, a share of the costs for a new school administration building, and restructuring that brings the department of public works under the authority of selectmen.

In annual town elections Thursday, West Tisbury voted against a tax override for school spending, while Edgartown voters approved several spending requests. Oak Bluffs re-elected incumbent selectmen and said yes to keeping fluoride in the town water supply.
