The Town of Yarmouth's Community Economic Development Committee (CEDC) held a meeting on January 3, 2025, where members discussed budget allocations and upcoming plans that directly impact the community. A significant decision made during the meeting was the approval of funding for various initiatives aimed at enhancing local economic growth and community engagement.

Committee members unanimously voted to allocate $35,000 for special events, $200,000 for marketing efforts, $50,000 for economic development projects, and $135,073 for public improvements. This funding is expected to bolster community activities and promote Yarmouth as a vibrant destination, benefiting local businesses and residents alike.

In addition to the budget discussions, the committee reviewed the annual report and acknowledged the need to adjust the meeting schedule due to a holiday conflict in November. Members emphasized the importance of staying organized and keeping track of upcoming meetings and deadlines to ensure effective planning for the year ahead.

The meeting highlighted the committee's commitment to fostering economic development and enhancing the quality of life for Yarmouth residents. As the town moves forward with these initiatives, community members can anticipate a more engaged and economically vibrant environment in the coming year.
