Month: November 2026

Through consensus, the LWV-MV has adopted positions on five topics relevant to the Vineyard. These five relate to Housing, Land Use, Regionalization, Shared Use Paths (known as “bike paths”) and The Steamship Authority (SSA). Each Year the MV League reviews and votes annually to renew these positions in order to continue pertinent actions.
