For roadways, including the addition of elevated sections or causeways, in connection with a project providing a public benefit as approved by a two thirds majority vote of a Special or Annual Town Meeting, the restriction set forth in Section 11.6.A.2.d.4 shall not be applicable and the Conservation Commission’s review and the Martha’s Vineyard Commission’s review (if required) under this provision shall be the sole review required under Article 11 of the Zoning By-laws. This provision does not eliminate review of roadways, including those with the addition of elevated sections or causeways, not submitted to Town Meeting for approval as providing a public benefit. 4) Roads that do not exceed ten (10) feet, but roads may have an additional area to accommodate pedestrian travel, provided that the entire width does not exceed fifteen (15) feet.
