A “Yes” vote means

A “No” vote means

A no vote rejects continuing Montgomery's additional levy for those fiscal years.

Montgomery straddles Fayette (52% of residents) and Kanawha counties; Fayette's module owns the question. The Fayette sample ballot heads it "Official Levy Ballot: Montgomery City Special Levy".
