Jacob Hemmerick, AICP, is a community planning & policy manager for the Vermont Department of Housing & Community Development, explained that the Vermont Legislature backed the implementation of the guide with funding for a grant program to provide municipalities with resources to hire consultants to write local zoning that supports great neighborhoods.
The legislators renewed that
two times since the initial round.
The
legislature has also added other benefits for designated neighborhoods,
including a freeze on land gains tax for properties upzoned under the new
scheme, as well as fee breaks for state wastewater permits in Vermont
neighborhoods planned and zoned for compact development.
