A proposal by the Vineyard Haven Yacht Club to replace its building
on Vineyard Haven harbor has opened the door to a unanticipated
discussion about public access to water.
The Martha's Vineyard Commission, which is reviewing the

its decision due to concerns about a little-known section of public
beach next to the yacht club at the end of Owen Little Way.

Setting up another potential roadblock for the offshore wind farm proposed in Nantucket Sound, the town of Barnstable and two groups of Cape Cod citizens last week filed notices of intent to sue the state’s top environmental official for his endorsement of the project.
The three separate notices serve as formal appeals of the certificate signed last month by Massachusetts Secretary of Energy and Environmental Affairs Ian Bowles, who found that developers of the Cape Wind project had fulfilled their environmental review requirements on the state level.
