The Master Plan can be reviewed and refined. The Master Plan is not intended to be a document fixed in time. The policies and action steps in the Master Plan can, and should, be regularly reviewed and refined as circumstances change, financial considerations change, or new infor‐ mation becomes available. The Master Plan provides guidance for municipal activities as well as those of state agencies, civic organizations, property owners, and developers. The Mas‐ ter Plan will only be effective to the extent it is embraced and supported by the people of Oak Bluffs, and implemented by local boards and agencies. 6 1.2 Past Master Plans Oak Bluffs has prepared several
