Tisbury Climate Committee · Meeting of April 13, 2026
Tisbury Climate Committee advanced municipal resilience planning focused on vulnerable populations. The committee assumed leadership of Martha's Vineyard Commission seed projects targeting three areas: emergency shelters, communication systems, and food security. The town received $610,000 under the Resiliency and Affordability Program, with $236,000 funding solar and battery backup at the Senior Center and $374,000 available for the library.
Recent winter storms revealed shelter-capacity gaps: the Senior Center lacked adequate heating, and the school's generator was insufficient to power emergency shelter facilities.
