Can I vote in the 2022 referendum?

On Thursday, December 8th, 2022, Farmington voters will decide on increasing the project budget for the new Farmington High School, which will result in increased state reimbursement and a lower direct municipal cost.

You can vote in the referendum if you are:

A Farmington resident

AND

Registered to vote in Farmington

A resident of another town who owns at least $1,000 of taxable property in Farmington

To register to vote, you must be:

a US Citizen,
a resident of Farmington, and

at least 18 years old.*

Taxable property includes land, buildings, and registered motor and unpowered vehicles.
According to the Town Registrar of Voters office: “property owner must be 18 or older, must be a US citizen, and whose name appears as an owner on the last Annual Grand List. Property transfers after that date would not be recognized for voting purposes.”
To cast a ballot:
“property owners would appear at one of our 4 polling places, complete a property and personal identification declaration form and then be given a regular ballot following confirmation.”
