A YES vote means
Permanently raise the town's spending limit starting with its 2027-28 budget year. The limit would change each year with population and prices.
A NO vote means
Reject the permanent increase in the spending limit. Stricter limits would apply after the current budget rules expire, which could reduce town services.
