For many years, Burlington has faced a housing crisis. Meanwhile, right now, progressive cities around the country are looking to housing policy as a solution to many of our central challenges, and reforming outdated land use policies that increase income inequality, promote sprawl, and drive up rents. Here in Burlington, we can do the same.

Please join us on June 11 for the Burlington Housing Summit, where we will delve into our housing challenges, opportunities, and key policy reforms. We plan to emerge from this summit with a list of priority housing initiatives that the Administration will spearhead in consultation with the City Council, the Planning Commission, housing stakeholders, and the public in the coming months. Our goal will be to deliver draft ordinances for these priority reforms to the City Council for action this fall.

We know that beyond the next few months, there will be more work to do. To this end, the Summit will also include space to hear from the community about other ideas we should consider in the future.

We need all of your voices at the Burlington Housing Summit. Together, we can take a step toward a future where housing is a human right and where Burlington is the sustainable, vibrant, affordable, inclusive, and equitable place that we strive to be.

The Essex Junction Trustees is the governing, legislative body for the Municipality of the Village of Essex Junction. The five member board is elected at large within the Village. The board includes the position of Village President. The position of president and vice president are decided (appointed) through a vote of the board itself.  This was a function of a charter update at the 2010 annual meeting. The three year terms of the Trustees are staggered to provide continuity. The Trustees usually meet twice per month on Tuesday evenings in the meeting room at the Village municipal office building at Five Corners. The public is invited to attend all meetings, and may address the board or ask questions during a special “public to be heard” section at the beginning of each meeting.

Join award-winning producer, James Gero at the Burlington Discover Jazz Fest. The old adage holds true, music makes the world go round. Even before musical instruments, envision yourself in a world of ambient sound from the power of rolling thunder to the diminutive sound of a gentle summer shower; listen carefully to the birds, the most lyrical of all God's creatures. The virtuosos of fluttering pervasive staccato. The natural sound of nature, abundant and plentiful. The flutelike sound of a mountain brook or the crashing of mighty ocean waves on a deserted island beach to the wind softly whispering through dry fall leaves; indescribably beautiful are the sounds of mother earth and this can only be a brief and minuscule description yet I feel this is a most important influence that makes us as human beings musically inclined; from eons past we are inclined to listen.

These curious symphonies have instiled in us a love of a profound cacophony of sound translated down through millennium; we now interpret these sounds in our own creative ways and the Burlington Discover Jazz Fest transforms nature to modern music. Jazz, blues, gospel there is no wrong way to express our musical inclinations, yet Burlington Discover Jazz Fest is one of the best ways to be transformed into a city now enraptured in every musical genre. Filling the city street's venues and quaint cafes with endless days of an unending plethora of laughter in every kind of magnificent music a chorus, not unlike our very ancient roots. Burlington Discover Jazz Fest is a magical mixture and amalgamation of ear and mind-bending enjoyment. Let us liken this incredible experience as a renaissance of all our musical beginnings.

When we think of Jazz Fest we may picture talented musical performers; this is unquestionably and undoubtedly true and they are there for all to revel in, young and old, single or family, no one person is excluded. When we think of the Burlington Discover Jazz Fest we must also think of ourselves, ourselves as not only listeners but as interpreters. We in all ways determine our own feelings and special places the musicians take us. This is there for all to share. When we think of the Burlington Discover Jazz Fest, we must think of interpretation. Our one interpretation is ours alone. This is Burlington Discover Jazz Fest. As is the special and grateful gift of all the grand performances and musicians. Written by James A Gero.
