How can we create affordable housing and still preserve the character and open space of the island? One possible answer is the Accessory Apartment Program of West Tisbury (AAPWT) which was recently created with the help of IHT. Accessory apartments can provide extra income for property owners while helping to alleviate the affordable housing shortage.  Accessory apartments can also help year-round island residents secure housing and avoid the “island shuffle.” To learn more about how this program works please click on the link to the AAPWT website.
