Rental Housing Advisory Board

January 2019 Recommendations

As per the charge laid out in Act 188 of 2018, the Rental Housing Advisory Board has produced and submitted to the General Assembly a report of findings to date and recommendations to move towards an improved system ensuring the safety of Vermont's rental housing units. You can read the report here: January 2019 Recommendations 

Overview
To date, over $1M has been invested in Level 2 and DC fast charge equipment at 30 project locations around the State.  The remaining $1.7M in funding will be used to build out the DC fast charge network at priority locations on highway corridors.  The goal is to provide fast charging within 30 miles of every Vermonter. 

As required by law, the Department of Housing and Community Development annually submits a report to the Vermont Legislature on the uses of State and federal funds awarded or appropriated for housing development and housing assistance and subsidies.

Act 157 directed the Agency to develop recommendations to fill the gap in our housing and infrastructure needs. Over the summer and fall, the Steering Committee and staff reviewed existing programs and statutes, gathered stakeholder input and evaluated the housing and infrastructure needs throughout Vermont.
