Megan Winton, senior scientist at the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy, stands before a model of "Bruce," the shark puppet used in the movie Jaws, at the AWSC Shark Center, in Chatham.

It's the local news roundup, where we discuss the stories making regional headlines this week.

Among the storis we will be talking about: the UMass Donahue Institute study finds a real estate transfer fee to fund affordable housing would not hurt real estate sales on the Islands; the first great white shark of the season has been detected off Martha's Vineyard; and The Nature Conservancy has chosen Monk's Park, in Bourne, for a "living shoreline" project.
