March 16th's kick-off meeting for the Chittenden County Regional Sustainability Project will air on public access stations around the county, and is available as streaming video below.

The first meeting of the steering committee overseeing a two-year regional sustainability initiative is a partnership of Chittenden County municipalities, state and local agencies, institutions and non-profit organizations.

The Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission is the primary agency providing staff support for the endeavor.

The project is supported with a $1 million grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Sustainable Communities Partnership.

The results of the effort will be used in updating the Burlington Legacy Plan, the county’s Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS), the Chittenden County Metropolitan Transportation Plan and the Chittenden County Regional Plan.
