Voters authorized a $2,800,000 appropriation through Article 17 to rehabilitate equalization tanks at the Yarmouth Septage facility. The funding is required to address structural failures caused by the harsh environment of the plant.

Select Board Chair Tracy Post described the urgency of the repairs, stating, Raw sewage creates a highly corrosive environment that has resulted in failure of the concrete roof and sidewalls. The approved funds will allow the town to complete work on the second of two necessary tank rehabilitations.
