Given just how politically charged this issue has become, that unanimous vote says a lot about the work the committee put in to get this over the finish line. #vtpoli #vthousing #Act250

When the Vermont Land Use Review Board was created under Act 181, it didn’t arrive quietly. The law, one of the most sweeping overhauls of Act 250 in decades, was billed as a “grand bargain” between housing advocates and environmentalists. #vtpoli #Act250 #vthousing

Today, I & other "interested parties" go to a #Vermont #ACT250 hearing to try to speak up about a subdivision application which has a proposal to host #Vermont's first #Amazon distribution center in our town's Saxon Hil forest.

All of us that applied for "Interested Party" status in #Vermont #ACT250 #Amazon hearing were granted it. It's for land/road set to host VT's 1st distribution center. Not only is Amazon terrible, it's in a terrible location in my neighborhood's forest. So destructive.

Vermont loosened Act 250 rules for housing. Here’s where developers are responding. - VTDigger Lawmakers had hoped the temporary carve-outs would help ease Vermont’s acute housing shortage. Developers are using the new exemptions in at least a dozen locations across the state.

Really well-sourced article from Carly @vtdigger.bsky.social and @vermontpublic.bsky.social on how the changes to #Act250 from the past couple leg. sessions are spurring new housing creation. Hopeful stuff in #VtPoli. vtdigger.org/2024/12/11/v...
