Much of the Town Council's work takes place through a variety of committees, most notably the Committee of the Whole, which consists only of councillors. To assist the Town Council in making informed decisions, Council also appoints people to a variety of Citizen Advisory Committees and Municipal Corporations and Boards.
Directory of Committees
The Town of Yarmouth's citizen committees provide advice and feedback to town council and advisory committees on a variety of issues, including heritage and culture, emergency management, downtown and the environment; whereas boards have the autonomy to make decisions for the good of their organizations. Check out our full Directory of Committees, including mandates, appointees, and key contacts. Each advisory committee and board also has at least one representative from Town Council.
