The Martha's Vineyard Commission, in varying years, has joined the town water department customer list to the parcel boundary file. Data includes:Edgartown - Year 2008 (water records & parcel boundaries)Chilmark (Menemsha) - Year 2004 (water records & parcel boundaries)Oak Bluffs - Year 2017 (water records; parcel boundaries FY19)Tisbury - Year 2016 (water records; parcel boundaries FY19)The towns of Aquinnah and West Tisbury are fully served by individual private wells. In Chilmark, it is only the Menemsha village which is served by the Menemsha Water Company. Those parcels NOT served by town water in Edgartown, Oak Bluffs, & Tisbury are served by individual private wells.
Based on Town ID, this dataset only displays the data for the 6 towns on Martha's VineyardAquinnah = 104Chilmark = 62Edgartown = 89Oak Bluffs = 221Tisbury = 296West Tisbury = 327Data are compiled by the Town's parcel data consultant. As of FY24, all towns are using Cartographic Technologies. Data are provided to MassGIS and hosted by them in ArcGIS OnLine. Data comply to the MassGIS Level 3 parcel data standard. Data are updated about once per year. The extract of assessing info is static & done at the time the data are compiled by the consultant. For more current assessing info, visit the town's respective online assessing map.
These boundaries are for planning purposes only and are not survey grade. For the most up-to-date assessing info, please contact the Town's Assessor. The respective Fiscal Year of publication is provided in the parcel pop-up info window. Years may vary from town to town.The parcels from each town on Martha's Vineyard are included in this web map. The map must be zoomed in far enough before the parcels will display on the map. The data are served out from MassGIS. All parcel data comply with the MassGIS Level 3 Parcel Data Standard.Each Town in Dukes County hires their own parcel data consultant to maintain their GIS parcel file. In most cases, this is done once a year. At the time of data compilation, the town Assessor exports a standard info file from their database which gets associated with each digital parcel. The Town's consultant pulls the parcel bounds and assessing info table into a spatial geodatabase which is then forwarded to MassGIS. MassGIS completes a few additional data management tasks and then serves out the data through their ArcGIS OnLine organizational website.The Martha's Vineyard Commission (MVC) then pulls that parcel data feature class into this web map and sets a few things such as visibility zoom extents and how the data display in the pop-up. The MVC does not edit these data in any way.Building Info Note: If there are multiple buildings on a parcel, the building info provided is only for one building on the parcel. Which building (i.e. largest, smallest, newest, oldest) is unknown. Parcels with Multiple Owners (i.e. Condo): If there are multiple owners on one parcel, when clicking on the pop-up you'll see the option to cycle through several records worth of assessing info.Understanding the Attributes: See the MassGIS Level 3 Parcel Data website for details.
Major watershed boundaries as adopted by the Martha's Vineyard Commission in 2015. These boundaries were developed through a collaborative effort between the Martha's Vineyard Commission and SMAST during the MEP process.All parcel data is compiled by CAI Technologies per the MassGIS Level 3 parcel data standard. Most towns have their parcel data updated annually. However, all 6 Vineyard towns are updated at the same time. If you click on a parcel on the map, the pop-up info will indicate the Fiscal Year FY of the data.The assessor's info (i.e. owner, assessed value, etc.) associated with a parcel is a static export from the assessor's database at the time the parcel lines are updated annually. For the most current assessor's info, visit the respective town's AxisGIS website.
Interior town boundaries for towns on Martha's Vineyard. Does not include coastline of town. Interior town boundaries from MassGIS Community Boundaries data layer 1:25,000 scale. Town boundaries through ponds were digitized by the MVC from the USGS topo maps created in mid-1970s.

Overlay zoning districts are in addition to standard town zoning. The districts' boundaries and use limitations &/or development constraints are described in the town's zoning bylaw. The MVC generated these digital spatial boundaries based on the best GIS data available at the time of processing.Some overlay zoning districts are also Districts of Critical Planning Concern. These are zoning districts established by the Martha's Vineyard Commission and adopted by the town at town meeting.The boundaries are not survey-grade and are intended for planning purposes only.
Town water customer map & lot info was obtained from the Edgartown Water Dept. in 2008 and linked to the 2008 parcel boundaries based on map and lot ID.
This feature layer contains a zoning layer for each of the 7 towns within Dukes County MA. Most of the data was compiled by the Martha's Vineyard Commission. Older data was created by MAPC staff during the Community Development Plan project in the early 2000s.See dataset's attribute table for last edit date. The date range for edits is wide: 2003 to 2024. The basemap of reference, in some cases (Tisbury) was the current GIS parcel boundary file at time of editing. The other towns seaward extent of zoning will not match the parcel data bounds since a different basemap was referenced at time of editing. The ZoneCode attribute contains the abbreviated zoning name for each district, preceded by the town's ID number.For Zoning Bylaws, see each Town's bylaws website: Aquinnah Chilmark Edgartown Gosnold Oak Bluffs Tisbury West Tisbury
