Residents voted overwhelmingly to appoint the tax collector and to adopt a recall ordinance on Tuesday.

Voters also had the opportunity to sign petitions to get initiatives on the ballot in the next election cycle.

Augusta, Waterville, Anson, Hallowell, Oakland and a number of other communities have contested races or questions to answer on what’s expected to be a slow day at polls.

Voters will be asked to consider changes to the town’s liquor laws, including getting rid of one law that allows wine sales only on Sundays.

The C. M. Bailey Public Library, which has seen unprecedented interest since reopening in its new and improved facilities, has generated a contested race to serve on the board of trustees.

The ordinance outlines a process for the recall of elected officials and follows a recent lawsuit the town has filed against former Tax Collector Claudia Viles.
