The Aquinnah select board announced plans Tuesday to host a special town meeting in the third week of August to address issues not covered at annual town meeting in May.

Aquinnah voters Tuesday also approved the town's $7.1 million budget and backed funding for town building repairs.

Aquinnah voters will consider funding for town building repairs, the creation of an affordable housing trust and a school debt exclusion when they head to the annual town meeting and election next week. 

The town will ask residents to reapprove $6.9 million for the East Chop revetment and $26 million for wastewater treatment facility upgrades.

The select board Tuesday voted to hold a special town meeting on June 25 at 7 p.m. at the Oak Bluffs Elementary School to reauthorize two borrowing articles that were approved at the 2022 annual town meeting. 

Voters pushed back on the proposed bylaw, which would have limited people to having no more than two parties a month with more than 50 people.
