Vermont Planners

We made some maps. And charts. And tables. Check them out! #2020Census vcgi.vermont.gov/data-release/2…

Don’t forget to submit that amazing idea you had for presenting at the @NNEPlanning fall conference. Looking forward to seeing people in person in #BTV this October! nne.planning.org/meetings/confe…

We are thrilled to announce Ben Doyle as the Preservation Trust of Vermont's new President. “With Ben’s leadership, we look forward to continuing PTV’s good work with commitment and confidence.” Neale Lunderville, Board Chair. ow.ly/7eAU50B8Zkp

Dear 150,000+ #VT households who have yet to reply to the 2020 Census: GET ON IT! Thanks to the @uscensusbureau API we are able to provide you with daily response rate updates: 2020.mapvt.com #2020Census

The work we do @VCGI helps save #VT millions of $ and helps save lives. But nothing we do brings people more joy than when we post a bunch of old photos. (Thanks @AOTVermont for scanning!!!)

Why aren’t we building more homes in town? A great tour of what it means to be ready for change that makes neighborhoods affordable, strong, vibrant. stvt.org/blog/2019/10/1… @vnrcorg

It is with great sadness that we share the news that our beloved friend and leader Paul Bruhn has passed away. You will be so missed by so many. bit.ly/2kq4ioA

@ad_mastro @ThisIsVT

What state has the highest absolute and/or per-capita number of classic/traditional downtowns?

Check out this map of the landslide in Mount Mansfield State Forest (Waterbury) with imagery from @AOTVermont collected in collaboration with @VTANR vcgi.maps.arcgis.com/apps/Minimalis…

Enjoyed kicking off the Downtown and Historic Preservation Conference with state and community leaders. This year, we expanded the Downtown and Village Center Tax Credit program to $2.6 million in order to support economic growth in communities across Vermont. #vtpoli

Celebrating the leaders who brought the #vtdowntowns program to life through collaboration and persistence. Including @BHumstone @preservationvt @VermontHCB. Amazing to see them all in one place. Our thanks! @VNRCorg @GovPhilScott #vtpoli

$12 million state investment in #vtdowntowns leveraged $58 million in private investment, reports @GovPhilScott, who named downtown investment as a key part of his Econ dev strategy.

Great start to the #vtdowntowns conference with @tbradyvt and @GovPhilScott

Looking forward to this year’s Downtown Conference @vtmontpelier featuring @PPS_Placemaking! @preservationvt @VTEconDev ptvermont.org/our-work/confe…

We all could do more to recognize the great work people do in Vermont to make their communities awesome places to live, work, and play. You should nominate a person or project for an award! vermontplanners.org/awards-recogni…

Did you come across any amazing plans, projects, or planners this past year? vermontplanners.org/awards-recogni…

@asuozzo @VCGI @sevendaysvt OMG, the phrase "settlement patterns" appears in the second sentence, making this a must read! #plannerd #vtdowntowns @VNRCorg @VT_Planning

Commuting flows within #VT. Nice work by @f_l_o_u_r_i_s_h making it so easy to build this (& thanks to @en_dash for sharing the ACS data) public.flourish.studio/visualisation/…

@VT_Planning Sharon Murray presenting VPA’s position here at #act250 commission meeting. An important piece: identify state interests so we can review development with respect to those. @BHumstone

Households that live in compact areas have much lower carbon footprints than in sprawling areas. Here’s a simple calculator: coolclimate.berkeley.edu/calculator Supporting downtown multi-family building instead of pushing growth out is one of most impactful things we can do re:climate change
