The Edgartown select board voted Monday to send a letter to the state arguing against recent shorebird conservation rules.

The Martha’s Vineyard Surfcasters Association has run a courtesy patrol for more than 30 years on the island’s beaches, lending a hand to beachgoers, fishermen and the Trustees staff.

Town officials said they are hoping to start allowing oversand vehicle access on Norton Point as soon as next week.

A proposed shorebird conservation restriction could hamper oversand vehicle (OSV) access on the Island and across the state.

After releasing an initial draft of the plan last June, the Trustees spent the year gathering public feedback on topics such as oversand vehicle access, shorebird protections and pet regulations.

The Edgartown conservation commission conditionally approved The Trustees of Reservations application to sell OSV permits on Trustees property from Wasque to the Jetties.
