What does this measure do?

This would allow sales and other business activity involving beer, low-alcohol wine, and light spirits in Pearl River County's dry areas. Residents could buy these drinks locally; the question adds no new tax.

A YES vote means

Yes lifts the county dry-area ban on selling and handling beer, low-alcohol wine, and light spirits, subject to permits. It does not decide the separate liquor question.

A NO vote means

No keeps the current county restrictions on those drinks in dry areas. Existing local exceptions stay, and the separate liquor vote is unaffected.
