Our View: Move Forward With Sea Camps

The more than $1.7 million that Brewster voters will be asked to spend on capital improvements to the Sea Camps bay property at Monday’s special town meeting is an investment worth making. The defeat of master plan funding for the property was a setback; on Nov. 16 voters have an opportunity to put rehabilitation of the property back on track. The money, which comes from community preservation funds and free cash, will rehabilitate tennis courts, allow demolition of up to 21 buildings, replace a water main in an environmentally sensitive area and develop landscaping and trail plans. The property holds the potential for being a real centerpiece for the town, and these steps will continue movement in that direction.

YOUR VIEW: Canty speech ‘disrespectful, demeaning and judgmental’

Along with other residents of West Plymouth, I attended the Select Board meeting on November 10, 2026. I live very close to the huge 392-apartment, 40B proposal by developer Rick Vayo, which the Select Board summarily voted to approve on a fast track, and to send a prepared Memorandum of Agreement and Support letter to the state housing agency, with no residents of the area present at the meeting.

Ocean View Hotel Faces Historic Hurdle

A controversial plan for a new hotel in Oak Bluffs faces an uncertain future after a town historic committee refused to give it its blessing last month. On Oct. 13, the Copeland plan review committee voted 3-1 that the proposed Ocean View Hotel was not appropriate for the district. The three-story, 26-room, Victorian-style hotel, backed by Boston-based developer Charles Hajjar, is designed to pay homage to the original Ocean View that burned down in 1965.

The program was sponsored by the town, the chamber of commerce and the Cape Cod Regional Transition Authority.
