Why This Vote Matters

Turnout

Low Turnout = Outsized Influence

Yarmouth has approximately 19,000 registered voters. Spring town elections typically see turnout between 10–20%. That means fewer than 4,000 votes could decide this question.

Process

No Town Meeting Debate

This question was placed on the ballot by petition, bypassing the Town Meeting process where residents traditionally deliberate and amend policy proposals.

Binding

This Is Permanent

If passed, Question 4 becomes a binding town bylaw. It cannot be easily amended or repealed — it would require another ballot question or Town Meeting vote to change.

Vote No on All Four

We've presented the ballot language, the financial exposure, and the organizations behind these questions. The facts speak for themselves.

If you believe Yarmouth voters deserve a cost estimate before approving permanent tax increases…
If you believe major policy changes belong at Town Meeting, not on a bare ballot…
If you believe Yarmouth's policies should be shaped by Yarmouth residents…

Vote No on All Four — May 19, 2026.
