HISTORIC PROPERTY SURVEY AND PRESERVATION PROGRAM
In an effort to recognize, preserve, and enhance the Town’s historic resources, the Town of Yarmouth is working with the Village Improvement Society, Yarmouth Historical Society, Maine Historic Preservation Commission and Maine Preservation to identify historic properties and develop recommendations for protecting the community’s unique historic character.
