2. Rare species found now requires protection, close the airfield and 1000
acres of former public land now bird sanctuary.


Actually, most of Katama Airpark is already a wildlife sanctuary- the
original owners (I want to say it's been around since 1928) donated
1000 acres of grassland to Edgartown (the hoity-toity side of the
Vineyard) with the stipulation that they had to keep the airfield
open. Talk about thinking ahead.
